  1. I have a place near Torrox, due south of Competa. It is a beautiful area although on the edge of the mountains, Competa can be very cold in the Winter. Frigiliana is beautiful and Nerja is a great town. I guess you are aware of the licensing requirements if you are doing holiday lets less than three months?
  2. Mine are triple split and they did an excellent job. They are Planet Wheels in Walters Ash. I act for four local garages and all of them recommended them.
  3. Typically hospital cleaning staff, inhouse or outsourced would do a deep clean taking maybe a day, scrubbing, lots of elbow grease, to make it free of obvious dirt, that would be the deep clean. We would then complete a bio-decontamination which killed any pathogens, which took maybe three hours. Then the ward would be re-populated. Military have a similar process, we never broke into that market, it was dominated by a competitor.
  4. I used to own a biodecontamination business that decontaminated hospital wards using a mist of hydrogen peroxide and silver. It was highly effective against MRSA C Diff norovirus and the like, and would have dealt with this virus too. Our problem was that the ward had to be vacated by all patients and decanted into another ward for up to a day. Given the pressure on bed space that wouldn't be practical at the moment. UV light can also be effective and has the advantage of being capable of working while patients are in their beds. However our mist would cling to any surface, from floor to ceiling, under beds, in cupboards and everywhere in an enclosed space. The main disadvantage of UV is that it only decontaminates in line of sight, like a torch at night, so to be effective you have to keep moving the line of sight and it would never be sure to get to hidden areas where pathogens best like to accumulate, like on bed rails and under beds. So UV has a place in all of this but it has limitations.
  5. Do you do the carbon spoiler and sell it without the legs?
  6. Every aspect of Government support is easily accessible from HMRC and gov.uk websites and they are promoting them on Facebook feeds too, a simple Google search identifies them in seconds. As an accountant and an employer I subscribe to a Government email service that sends update emails up to 100 times a day. Most are irrelevant to any one business or individual but you can pick and choose the ones you want to read. The link is https://www.gov.uk/email-signup?link=/government/topical-events/coronavirus-covid-19-uk-government-response The front page for access to all Government based coronavirus information, including the financial support, is https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus
  7. Three days in a row our local Sainsburys has stocked up overnight and opened at 8.00 with the first hour reserved for the elderly and frail. Each day the shelves have been empty by 9.00 with hordes of "younger" people barging in. On day three they have brought in security (no disrespect, but well-meaning people on minimum wage in a cheap uniform), which didn't help. I suggested arming the security staff, I suspect you would only have to shoot a few of these selfish wankers to put a stop to it, they might not even die although if they did they probably wouldn't be missed. And this is in so called sophisticated Marlow in leafy south Buckinghamshire
  8. A bit vague but there was a beautiful yellow Supra parked up on the main road in Naphill. I didn't get a chance to see a number plate but the colour was stunning and the car looked immaculate. I was in my dirty red Supra on my way to get the wheels refurbished.
  9. There is no import VAT or duty on any purchases within the EU, as long as they are customs cleared into the EU country of origin
  10. Worth a try but my experience is that they will only suspend the striking off if there are formal court proceedings in place. I have tried before when I had a recently issued CCJ against the company, and they still had it struck off. That did give me the prospect of then taking action against the Directors but the sums and time involved weren't worth the bother
  11. It is speculation and wrong. HMRC would never seek a compulsory striking off. You talk about a wind(ing) up petition, there is no evidence of any such action on the London Gazette. The first striking off action would have been because of the late filing of their first Confirmation Statement. Once that was filed the action was discontinued. Now they are three months late filing their accounts so a new striking off action has been started. With regards to your earlier comment, all companies have to file their accounts no later than 21 months after their incorporation date. Changing the accounting reference date can never extend that deadline. If they file their accounts and pay the late filing penalty, the striking off process will again be discontinued. All this proves is I have too much time on my hands and that their company administration looks as good as their customer service. If the experience of the OP is commonplace, the Directors might be best advised to let the company slide away by not filing any accounts. Nothing will stop them from starting again.
  12. I have a Ridox wide body and a TRD spoiler. I have a Stormforce cover that I used for one Winter and haven't used it since. Naturally I'm not recommending it, but if despite the other comments you still want it you are welcome to it for free.
  13. That looks worth the wait, congratulations, although I agree with you about the spoiler
  14. Thank you for your thoughts. The 120 amp fuse had blown and a replacement is on its way. What caused it to blow will be the next challenge I guess and I will look out for earthing problems
  15. For the first time in fifteen years of Supra ownership I am asking for help because it wont start. I fitted a new battery a couple of months ago and drove it for several weeks without any problem. I have been away for the last month, tried to start it and all is dead, apart from the light showing the door is open. The battery isn't fully charged, but it is not flat. I have tried jumping it and there is no sign of life. I have put the battery on trickle charge over night just to see if that makes a difference. After that might I be looking at fuses? Or I wonder if the alarm may be causing a problem, although that's me just floundering!
