  1. I had an incident a few years ago on a bus, I was carrying my two year old and climbed up the steps, the driver had closed the doors on me! I was half in and half out the bus and he was moving! Thought I was going to fall in the road, passengers were shouting to him what was happening.

     

    I complained and they were apologetic on the phone but to be honest I doubt it made a blind bit of difference.


  2. In safeguarding children, the EYFS welfare requirements are to have enhanced CRB checks for staff working directly with children. If this has not been done, then OFSTED would have picked it up when they did their last inspection.

     

    Have you looked at their last report to see if this has been highlighted?

     

    Unless you think the children are in immediate danger from a particular person at the nursery, I wouldn't lose sleep over it. A lot of settings are not very good with certain welfare requirements eg staff ratios, that is why OFSTED do inspections (though polishing up your practice and crossing all you t's and dotting your i's on that one day they come in doesn't show anything).


  3. The TPS site says

     

    "Organisations that use recorded phone message to try and sell or promote their products or services have to comply with the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003. These say that marketers who leave recorded phone messages must obtain prior consent from the subscriber before they can make such a call."

     

    So you must agree to these calls before they make them otherwise the company responsible is breaking the regulations and you should contact these people

    Maybe they do then, I dont know, I was only going by their FAQ saying recorded messages do not fall withing he remit of TPS.

     

    from TPS FAQ

    Recorded and automated sales calls including silent calls do not fall within the remit of TPS. TPS does not stop other call types such as market research, debt collection, scam calls and general nuisance calls.


  4. didn't know it was free, when I looked into how to stop recieving these calls the site wanted £30 fee (don't know what site it was though)

     

    Looked on TPS webpage and unfortunately it does no stop the recorded message phone calls, it is only for live callers.


  5. Have the same problem and it is so annoying. I have caller ID so can see the numbers calling and now have a list of some of the numbers so I pick up and put straight down. Fed up of them leaving messages about PPI etc.

     

    Don't really want to fork out money to stop the numbers, don't really think I should have to. I'm also ex-directory so would like to now where they get my number from.


  6. Yep 1 April it changes over automatically. It changed for me last week and gave me a chance to go through and check if there was anything I wanted to hide before it makes it public to friends viewing.

     

    I dont personally like it and think it should be a choice whether we want it or not.


  7. Have a Beko WM6152 and the door stays locked, washing stuck inside. It seemed to go a bit strange last night when I did this wash, at the end of the wash all lights were out didnt know what was wrong with it.

     

    The 'ready' light has come on now like it should, but the door wont unlock. Any ideas?


  8. Length of time is very important, there's a difference between a red light and a faulty red light, so would you wait more than 5 mins at a red light before you decided it was stuck? I wouldn't wait more than about 3 minutes a faulty red lighr and would proceed with caution providing it was safe to so and inform the police and the council

     

    3 minutes wait is not that long to decide if it's faulty, but that is my opinion. Still does not make it legal to go through it.


  9. Would you wait more than 5 minutes?

     

    Not really important the length of time. A red light is a red light. You get a fine through the door because you've gone through, then how would you prove it had malfunctioned? Just because you think it's stuck does not mean you can legally go through a red light. Or maybe you can.


  10. not always! Illegal 99% of the time but not always dangerous depending on the type of junction, visibility and time.

     

    what circumstances is it 1% legal? As far as I'm aware there are no occasions where you're allowed to jump a red light, not even if you've got services siren going off behind you.


  11. Doubt you'd get them before xmas. I recently updated my GP lenses and was gutted I had to wait two weeks! He said that the GP one's are better for the eyes (which I knew as I had problems when I used soft ones) but everyone wants soft so they do not keep many GP ones is stock.

     

    They stopped giving the 'wear these until your perscription ones come in' as they are not cleaned to the standard that they should be for another wearer to use. (This is what I was told.)
