DX Wombat,
Glad to see that health and safety at work issues (not being allowed to nuke your own food have kettles in offices etc) don't apply if management would have to fork out for facilities and/or give long enough breaks to make use of facilites that are already in place.
(In lizzies boy scout unit we were not allowed to keep kettles in the tank park due to H&S - no problem with 20-odd armoured vehicles moving in an area smaller than a football pitch at night in the pouring rain with 100 odd blokes running around cabling them together etc - but a kettle
Blooming heath and saftey at war act, my @rse)
