Boilers under pressure! More essential hints for winter
December 13, 2007
Hot on the heels of his brilliant bleeding radiator advice, Barry our repairs guru is back with another smash hit - how to check the pressure of your boiler.
Yes, we know it’s not the sort of thing people do on an hourly basis but when you are sitting in on a Saturday night watching X Factor wondering why ice has formed on the top of your Horlicks, this could save the day.
It might also come in handy for those moments when the needle shoots into the red, the whole house starts shaking and a disembodied voice shouts “It’s going to blow captain!”
Oh, whatever. Watch it. It’s a gas.
Grant Management property investment team having a ball in the Middle East
December 5, 2007
Kilts were swinging right across the Middle East last month as Caledonian Societies throughout the region celebrated St Andrews night with their usual vim and vigour. It is a universal truth, usually observed in small dark places where they serve alcohol, that however patriotic a Scot feels at home, once you take him to another country, you can multiply that by a factor of ninety.
Thus the annual St Andrews balls in these faraway lands are always enthusiastically supported.
This year our own Grant Management property investment team joined in the fun as part of their grand tour of the Middle East. First, Charlotte and Taina travelled to Qatar, then Craig joined them as Grant Management provided sponsorship and prizes for the grand St Andrews celebrations in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
Whisky flowed, pipes skirled, willows were stripped and several lively eightsome reels were delivered with the precision of the Red Arrows display team. To all friends, business partners and investors who came along and said hello, thank you and see you again soon. In the meantime enjoy our photographs of the property investment team on tour.
