Glad to see you’ve still got an eye on the ball Tuc! 😉👏

So, just to recap. A sharp witted plumber (isn’t that an oxymoron?) spotted a potential problem, reported it and action was taken to resolve it PDQ? The ‘System’ working as advertised, it seems to me.

Of course, ‘The meejah’ will be pissed off because no nuns, nor balls of fire were seen by a Ms Jade Hoooeva of Birkenhead. ‘Aces officianados’ will make as much political capital out of it as they can, and pyro manufacturers (whoever they are….some outsourced to comply with US contract requirements, maybe?) will be nervous.

Personally I’m glad they found it.

Reminds me of many a time back in the EA, when a unit rep would call in to the office on a Tuesday saying “…..I’ve got a problem…what are you doing about it? “ Despite the DD bangin on about it 24/7, (love you George) It was always Friday afternoon before we were able to push out the warning instruction….😉

happydaze.
