And on a bag of mixed nuts in shells:
"Warning - Contains Nuts"

And these people actually get paid for doing this Health & Safety stuff. It's pathetic. I'm surprised they're all brave enough to get out of bed every morning to face the dangers of the day. How would they cope if they were sent off to Afghanistan to fight the Taliban? I read in the paper today that German troops out there insist on taking time off from combat to take their "tea breaks" under Health & Safety rules. Good job the Health & Safety brigade didn't exist in the Second World War. Hitler would have had a ball.

ive been painting some shop front window frames this week, park the van on the yellow line, put the ladder up in front with a couple of wet paint notices on the pavement, god only knows how many rules and regulations ive broken, its been quite an eye opener just how many people would prefer to walk round the van in the road rather than go under the ladder,...but i havent seen a traffic warden and the police cars all went past without stopping.
in theory i should have had scaffolding and a set of three way traffic lights (it was a corner shop) which would have caused total dissruption all week.

I was always told that Tarzan's underpants had a label saying
"Warning - contains nuts!"
