hjs|people helped Silverlake Garage pass their unannounced Health & Safety Inspection with flying colours:-

"Quite unexpectedly we had a visit from the Health & Safety Executive yesterday.  You can imagine the fear that ran through us, however, due to the advice and dedication you have shown working with Jane, we passed with flying colours.

"The Inspection began by the HSE checking all our records, statements and that our paperwork was all in order.  As all of this was up to date and available we started off the inspection on a good note and it continued in that vane.  During the meeting your name passed through my head numerous times as you had provided us with the answers to some of the questions and indeed had advised us on particular issues in the yard and the way we should do things.

"May I just thank you for all this work even though I know we pay you for it, and the way you have worked together with Jane to achieve this high standard.  We are all aware of our business could have been taken away from us overnight."
