There is no pavement on sections!!! They have given me a couple of lights now but I'm hoping being out so late won't be a regular thing now Christmas is done. Either that or I will have to get those legs moving faster!

If you haven't got the tools to do the job properly and safely then flat-out refuse - from your experience of the company how far do you think RM will stand by you if you're in anyway responsible for an accident or injury involving yourself or others?
