Am I right in thinking that amateur accidents with saws get lumped in with

I think you are Peter, leastways the HSE Arb notes thing seems to have
included accidents that have occurred to builders in the past.
Wasn't Dick Granger involved in some ridiculous accident where he fell in a
hole in a building site or something? Only got out cos he'd got a cellphone
in

that you find on building sites and for a moment my life flashed before me
as
I realised that no-one knew where I was and only the foreman locking up
might
notice my car.
Sheffield has a number of areas where violence to staff issues mean lone
working is inadvisable, I try to avoid it if I can and having a gopher on a
survey is useful not just for holding the end of the tape measure.
Bill.
