Here is a Public Service Announcement #PSA Do NOT use heatshrink to fix broken mains cables. EVER. This is dangerous, and irresponsible. If these wires are damaged, they need to be replaced, not patched up with heatshrink! @AmazonUK@ASA_UK
Either way, that image is suggesting a use for the product that is not safe, not practical, and is going to fail PAT at a visual inspection. Heatshrink has its uses (that's why I was looking for some), but this is NOT ONE OF THEM.
@andrewlsja@stjohnambulance Nice to see recognition - do we know if SJA people are eligible via the five year front line (including voluntary) criteria as well, or just the coronation events one?
@Ex_arv_sgt I feel for you guys - rock and a hard place. "Police allow criminals to escape justice" headlines if you do not persue. "Police in dangerous crash - why was this allowed to happen" headlines if you do.
How I've been spending the last few days...
Time to put all that lot away and get ready for doing software work again. Made a change fiddling with hardware, even if it was just in simulations.
Some unexpected post from @stjohnambulance this morning. What a year this has been - honoured to have been a part of this chapter in our nation's history.
@IversonSaal@99509Grant@obbsie Seems a no win situation from the outside - take action and risk these incidents (which really should be a Never Event), do nothing and you are "letting the criminals win" and "not doing your job"
Same with those mopeds... Do nothing, "inept police". Do stuff, "nasty police".
@IversonSaal@99509Grant@obbsie Sounds like the message us "Drive well, don't get stopped by the police. Drive poorly, get stopped by the police. Drive really badly, don't get stopped by the police".
