Applying Proven Military Reliability Screening Techniques
Having spent more than 30 years in the demanding world of defence equipment, one of my most interesting roles was being responsible for front line equipment reliability.

The Police visited their home and remarked that… Continue reading Good Advice or a Liability?
January 2015 Review
Finally the cold weather has arrived, although even this month had a few days where t shirts seemed more appropriate than thermals.
