    Hello to all. Just came across you all whilst trying find an old fire alarm manual. I run a electrical business in Swansea and Install and service/ test fire alarm systems.

On a positive side it is friday and if I wasn't self employed I'd have the weekend off. Honestly, good to find this resorce and I hope in the future I can help other members also. best wishes John
