I disagree; we can and should plan for the unexpected. Should I get rid of my first aid kit at home because I don't expect to have an accident? Should I also cancel my home insurance because I don't expect to have a problem? This is all about a sensible risk assessment. What is likely to go wro

You're absolutely right David. As you cannot legally possess a driving licence unless you are an adult and all being grown up people WE should be responsible for our actions and behaviour, never someone else. I don't suppose CRC have any vested interest in "encouraging" more frequent checks on lice

I don't know why this company find it surprising. I bet if you asked 100 SME's the question more would say they didn't check licences than do. And some of the ones who do check annually accept and trust their staff to bring in photocopies. Madness !!

Why is it treating someone as an object to call them 'love' 'duck' 'mate' 'pal' or 'chuck'. If sexual harrassment is being practised by patrons throw them out, simple but i don't think any of the above names are offensive and if so just say "don't call me that" . What is the alternative greeting?
