Bought one for the hallway at Crystal Peaks on Saturday. Carpet Right or Allied both do them. £30 for a 13' x 9' roll end. £25 for fitting. Total cost £55

I had to have this done when I sold my last house and had the same problem - they all quote "per hour" but will not tell you how long it will take them.

The traffic is bad coming into town down Penistone Road although the accident is now cleared.

I would tell Apollo that you are rejecting the item under the Sale of Goods & Supply of Services Act as it is not of reasonable quality. even a re-conditioned model should "reasonably" last for more than 2 months. You should be legally entitled to your money back.

Can anyone please recommend a company who can supply and fit a loft ladder and hatch in the Sheffield area. Thanks

You will NOT have to prove your case - the prosecution have to prove their case "beyond reasonable doubt" and you may have a good argument (depending on how many witnesses [and who they are]) to say that they did not do that. At the end of the day, if it is just your word against one other person (who is probably a police officer) that would probably not be beyond reasonable doubt.

Been with Tiscali for about 6 months and have had no issues. £19.99 monthly for 2 meg including all landline telephone calls which we find very beneficial.

Working Time Regulations - Rolled-up holiday pay

Rolled-up holiday pay

The practice of making payments for statutory holiday entitlement through a system of ‘rolled-up holiday pay’ has been ruled unlawful by the European Court of Justice as it contravenes the EU Working Time Directive. The DTI has amended its Working Time Regulations guidance to reflect this judgment.

The Court decided that employers should be paying holiday pay at the time their workers actually take their holidays rather than include an amount for holiday pay in the hourly rate of pay. As a result employers will need to renegotiate contracts involving ‘rolled-up holiday pay’ for existing workers as soon as possible so that statutory holiday pay is made at the time when the holiday is taken.

The DTI believes that although the Court of Justice found rolled-up holiday pay unlawful the judgement allows for off-set of payments already made whilst the practice is discontinued. Therefore whilst employers are in the process of changing their pay arrangements in order to eliminate rolled-up holiday pay payments which are transparent and comprehensible can continue to be offset against what has to be eventually paid."

Our gas combi boiler has been installed since 1992. I am trying to get it serviced but have has a Corgi registered engineer out to the house to be told that the flue is too near an opening window (20 cm) and that if he did any work he would have to disconnect it as it does not meet current safety regulations. The boiler (and window) are in a small 6 foot by 6 foot room upstairs which has the tumble dryer and the boiler in and the window is never opened, especially in winter (why have the heating on and the window open ??). There is absolutely no way in which the flue can be moved.

Whilst I appreciate the need for safety, it must surely be better to have a fully serviced & maintained boiler working than one which may be potentially dangerous, especially as it has been working there okay there for so long.

Any Corgi gas engineers out there able to give me any advice please ??

I think there was a very serious accident and 2 young men died when their car was in a collision with a minibus

We are with Atlantic (based Cardiff somewhere I think). Whenever one of the reps (BG, Npower etc) knocks on our door and we tell them that we are Atlantic customers, they pretty much just give up straight away !!

Took me an hour to get from city centre to Meadowhall at 3.15 pm !!!!

We could afford to build more prisons and to run them if built them as prisons to punish people and NOT as glorified holiday camps. But then whilst there are so many do-gooder liberals around - check website prisonreform.org for an overview of some of the organisations involved - the chances of this are pretty slim.

I would introduce a set penalty for anyone causes death whilst driving in a stolen or uninsured car - 10 years mandatory imprsionment with no chance of parole. Would that make people think before setting off on their "joy" rides ??
