As an architect of 32 million pound projects and Design Technology teacher of electronics engineering Graphics designed to the scale of an average ADHD child’s attention span my 3 000 square foot 280 meters squared to those of us in the 20th century 21st century well keep me occupied and not out of trouble [Music]
Oh if you think you might perhaps like a train wreck of a podcast this shows every likelihood of being a slow-motion car crash of a channel there’s no trickery all about thumbnails have some poetic quick link to humorous Parts within any of the particular videos in general relevant
Content a lot of it’s gossip type stories dilemmas giving you a window on a niche in life that you wouldn’t necessarily just of it topographic pinchpoint feudal gatekeeper power times [Music] where I live it’s like a gateway to Play Grind the Alps
And if you were to expand that a little bit you could say that Tennessee is a bit like a Gateway an intersection to the Western Alps more generally Valley and then another turning to the Terence Hayes Valley the thing is though that this makes Odyssey a bit of a huge
Not so attractive in places Spaghetti Junction of motorways highways whatever you want to call them but they’re all quite Urban so it’s all quite tight easily overshoot Your Mark and it’s not the case of doing another circuit you just lost them
But once you get down into well let’s see there’s a fair few streets that look quite similar it’s nice genteel tone and when you get to the old tone it’s just pricelessly beautiful there’s this new development on the waterfront just near the hotel the police for a couple of years
With a huge handmade escope consider these good examples Prefecture demands there’s International money comes to us it’s a beautiful location and it is a privilege to drive around either coast of coast of the lake sort of like a camping Coast on the far side and then even in the rain when you can’t see for the Mist the mountains that rise apart
Of the lake it’s a privilege not to take that pillage slow down and get a view of them shut down the Pinnacle Peninsula jumping out onto the lake after you’ve stopped at the most precious local produce Spa shop just before it thanks to the church [Music] that has been reminisce Finances scrounging materials stretches resources living costs minimal but increasing with little luxuries brexit means I have to have a bank account bank account to pay for in France it also means in order to have the cart to say sure I have to pay some sort of property taxes
Healthcare that’s another one Healthcare you part pay for you have to have insurance leverage to avoid all these things before brexit but the things we do the jobs we have done the temporary agency work to get the funds in to get back to where you feel you belong okay I’d like
To have a moment but I do know how lucky I am oh yes the build so the three floors are in and there’s an extra just in case beam and there’s the mezzanine level in as well the two beams and
The all the closed space joists are in with the nice little collables cables that I did is that a lamb’s tongue shape then there’s acoustic plus pulled on top of the joists multi-foil insulation and then the floorboards on top of that so early on I bought lots and lots of ply intending using
The floorboards quality ply but I’m always trying to improve the quality I’ve got really quite a lot of inch and a half thick windy edged rustic floor boards wall boards jail boards that I want to have
As features in a all-white floor generally but the play is an inch and a half thick obviously I’m starting to think there needs to be more rustic boards than white the oak floorboards of them as
Long time yet but they will tie together with The Rustic know how to do the skirting on each level the level below is the um diamond button diagonal approximity [Music] um playing thanks would it be overkill on the skirting to have plain skirting as well
Um I think tall white skirting there that I’ve managed to salvage from somewhere um white skirting on The Rustic and white floor as well perhaps I’ll tie it in a little bit together but then on the lowest floor then the mezzanine floor won’t have any skirting really
They’re on the lowest floor there’s like a beige concrete slab pleased with this 55 meter squared of floor drowning and traveling to a Polish next day wet soak and polish again and again um you get it and I don’t know what type of skirting they should have think that
Might end up with these um tall plain punished skirting board so I’m Salvage from somewhere but I’m just a bit worried at the moment I might be kidding myself that this is all going to tie in
There is a sort of a theme to it but the sobering reality is that I’ve played all this knowing that I’m going to freak just jack up a couple of three or four of the beams steel beams that the
Joyce are sitting in because I want to improve the quality again rustic level I’m no longer satisfied with I want laser accurate level getting steel beams into the well often existing holes in Granite walls it’s either up the size of a block or down the size of them yeah brick
A stone you can’t cut Granite to get it exactly where you want it that’s going to be my grandad’s old carjack that’s going to do the trick for me foreign friends welcome family by appointment so it’s no secret any more [Music]
We’re on a road trip to Savoy awful it’s about a thousand miles we’re missing out their nighttime bits you won’t see a soul in France on the roads after nine o’clock at night so you can put your foot down you don’t really need the payage we could take the route
Of Titans to and see worth doing but would you really only see the real France of champagne Zone River Region the Jorah Regional so that’ll feature strongly Lane before Geneva and Savoy Crossroads and see the confess I always call it the sea because if I think of the music
It’s more of a cultural journey through France though really at the other end is like a Crossroads between 12 years ago it was a border simply it’s a turing savoying area the Habsburg dominated burgundy and Netherlands no and that France before it was a pentagon and there’s a frontier Crossroads it changed hands
Did it ever and these days in full summer tourist season it’s really the place to pull like I said the olden days goes on to feeding the character four but we need to thank the period when German killed him dominated Geneva and so the Arpin poor speaking region a little bit
Of divorce Italian a little bit of French French a little bit of German Dutch influence possibly sainsbury sing song The Way That Swiss German sounds or Italian sounding French might sound term you and I I’m digressing already but I paired this road trip with a liquid Bell
Nicole Bell is a red wine from the Rome Valley being kissed by one of the vineyard owner and it’s got Vines up and down the valley all right basically taste Place The Taste but to finish my three minute instruction I’ll be covering your religious Refuge Scandal and Exiles journey to a Homeland
ADHD rich kid describes it all hope you find it amusing the jokes at the end sorry punchline burgundy region is like big bucks money over the past French comp is sort of where the rebels would have retreated to the mountains where gorillas would have descended from there’s the table
Endura and the folded Jura these physical maintenance might be vertical and mountains are across one of the top higher pentagons sides of France where it joins the top of Switzerland Switzerland has cantons and several of them open out onto the Jura mountains of France
The Jura mountains take a bit of a wave form a couple of them rolling up against the northern Alps of Switzerland they’re cantons and they’re they’re sort of elongated like groins on a beach or hotel sunbeds but remember England and allergies didn’t really work
There’s a clock making Tale in the French Jorah and that’s a hensland of a [ __ ] making Swift on top ain’t it that proverbial sea as these ripples of mountains wash up onto Switzerland interestingly the Rhine River goes northwards and the Rhone river goes southwards into France
Two different directions on two different ripples there are a few good roads through but as you might expect these ridges it’s not it’s not easily passed very worthwhile especially if you’ve got if you’ve got that cargo motorbike you know the root of The
Titans with the fire ducks that carrying modern tarmac is safe of all this just Mac on to Geneva and you’d miss all of this much of the history of the jurora you’ll often start with hundreds of meters of it’s not called a brontosaurus anymore apparently it’s called a sauropod it’s
Huge two meter wide steps of sauropod going on for hundreds and hundreds of meters from France that’s cool Foreign then turn right Always driving past him anymore shuttle Pearl is template racism oh Mysteries come outside Roland convent from Italian Romaine De La Roche bomb is messiers romance restaurant In just a few of them to get started has a huge ninth Century Abbey with a doom with an Epitaph reading there’s a religious honest priest in there but he was French he was Yonder whatville of the 1700 fantasy Claire swashbuckle times and why did he form that Sunny Lothian School for Girls
Born in these same Frontier lands between Barons his mother was from Malone’s dad disappeared after Spain leaving them so the ADHD teenager joined the Savoy Army 14 years after being born his grandparents ancestral home in Switzerland breast uncle
I know it’s French name the Milan senator’s daughter fought in Italy for the Spanish habsburgs that controlled the north at the time and the Netherlands and the north against the French but you know quarrel the Hot Head killed the Spanish officer he run away to the other side
Of the Borderlands to a carthusian monastery near panaris though he struggled with the burden of Chastity climbing over the walls for a night out in time whenever we got the opportunity one night he was discovered climbing over the monastery wall and killed a prior this time with his
Pistol and made his Escape the very next day he killed another man in a bra and so fled to Spain um popping him I know it’s French then his host in papinian has a daughter that he seduced
Likely betrothed to the son of a Spanish Grande at the time fighting a jewel with a gentleman he killed him again and was on the Run once more running out of options his problems in the Spanish realm had grown in ponds and the French Catholic Church wouldn’t be welcoming him [Music] Wow I tell them all the old things [Music] up under the snow the first boat out of the Mustang took him to the Ottoman Empire to Turkey where he converted to Islam and it became a pressure obviously bright and skilled there’s a mercenary at least
He took all the trappings of a pressure of the Ottoman Empire with slaves and a harem of girls he was there for 20 years he obviously enjoyed him whether he was trusted with or he just took his knowledge of several ottoman fortresses to the venetians when they were wanting to attack can’t
Be too clear but he defected to the Phoenicians in return for a PayPal guarantee that he would be pardoned and could return to the priesthood return a loose term because he’d hardly started in Paris with various Rich benefactors he returned to burgundy no plotting to overthrow Spanish ball and
Replace it with that of Louis the 14th difference it’s always the ambitious Champion wants to become Archbishop of Brussels but the pope reminded him about the double murder breaking of those apostasy and consoled himself with a nearby Abby but it was partly in dental work performance he’s been
Interested to represent France at a peace treaty but he ended up getting accused of treason by the French and had to flee to Paris and he criticized for not being able to prevent French compt being kept as inspirational being raised to the French why you’d run to the capital of the country
That’s accusing you a treason I’m not too sure but it was another treaty and it was all sorted out France they wanted always forgiven included into his Rich Abbey in the provinces [Music] 20 years in the Genesis the Ottoman Empire of the Philippines we’ve all forgotten them behind him at all were they navigated their political machinations of doll and gray nearby Baron hosted peace settlements with his property and dignity and restority combined a
Couple of local governments reserved for the daughters of noble families of the province and combined all the nobleman’s daughters schools of the area all under his control he rarely came to the king’s court but was received there with consideration whenever he did he was little chastised in his morals you’ve mystically
He was a quibbler and an authoritarian he made a reputation for extreme attachment to his rights as a abidabone at the same time he was described as a pleasure Seeker there is even a mention of the
Installation of a horrend and his castle of Saint Lothian under the guise of the House of Education he currently transformed the buildings of the Abbey particularly his Abbott’s dwelling the north transectum interior Recreation of the church and had a staircase cut at the bottom of the
Recess to reach uh Crown Court dramatic by today’s standards but I can’t help but feeling was very fairly typical of a baron of the time adopting the veil of religion whichever suited him financially personally I find it difficult to describe him as a romantic figure but that’s how the French do
Yeah foreign [Music] [Music] there’s a 45 to 75 ABV drink that comes from pontelia from France or covert and Switzerland it’s made of predominantly wormwood together with green anise sweet vanilla another medicinal and parallel and rehabs flowers and leaves not bottled with any sugar this is added afterwards
When it was given to French troops as a malaria preventative the trips got a taste for it in the colonies and brought it home with them became very popular in indeed why the clock became them there’s the green hour the wealthy bourgeoisie to
Poor artistic normally working-class people must consumed it mass production made it much cheaper 36 million liters were being consumed in 1910 compared to 5 billion liters of wine in France Penny was put around the tip of the glass for children and it was sort of known as a women’s
Drink considering the dates and location of its first production in France it’s tempting to to think that the convent sisters that produced it weren’t given the recipe by our Nursing From the Ottoman Empire Albert discussed earlier rather than Dr ordinair
Which even sounds like a John Smith name considering it’s Persian and Syrian and Greek Roots even a woman drink was produced in Egypt the plant was often burned as a protective offering the name of the bitter herb and getting its name from undrinkable
If you guessed the name of the drink that we’re talking about here in New Orleans in America it was used in the Sazerac cocktail Edward Degas painting in the news epitomize the popular view of absinthe addicts as Sodom and binand it does Focus the attention onto the central field of vision
But the sharp and bitter herbal aspects uplift someone which does give it a different effect to the alcohols but wormwood essential oils were added to some Brands and they have a much stronger effect and also added upwards like the sugar pumpkin sensation of having
Tulips brush against my legs after leaving a bar at closing time quoted Oscar Wilde but Nouveau graphics and exaggerations then it’s Mass affordability so mainly absence fame or inFAMOUS the chemical constituent in Wynwood essential oil and Trace elements of absinthe So many places to visit in the weird and wonderful place of Jura shall I recount the names [Music] there should be so it’s built over the convent of the Sepulcher except we’ll close the Tomb of Jesus was buried in and presumably was resurrected from there is however in museum in Tennessee sculpture
Or alter piece of Jesus lying down with his crane of thorns and a Mary over him but which Mary there’s bound to be an element of revert shell is a common symbol of rebirth but the photo of
The sculpture that I’ve enclosed looks for all the world like her mother with her teeth out for her adult child to rejuvenate the dad alternatively it could be Magdalene to trying to revive them it was Mary Magdalene possibly a goat the 12 disciples took around with them everywhere on
Tour and that doctor anyway it’s a nice thing for a company but the convent did get closed [Music] would have had a benefactor but what Baron or whatever would have been so arrogant as to have
The tomb of Christ as his own resting place and unlikely at him it was a very early church in the last [Music] Roman’s abandoning time for the security of caves like the settlement of 2500 USB until a medieval Lord came along and enclosed things with Rembert At All by the 12th
Century Prosperity perhaps the locals have given up by then worshiping the bonus aventus statue the kings of Geneva transferred their Capital to NFC and built a castle which became [Music] a royal residence and the dynasty came to an end the death of Robert
Robert I think Bob yeah we were rubber bands with me honestly it’s evolved to survive oh so innocent sprays but the adventures [Music] speaking region it’s experienced a period of decline [ __ ] well there wasn’t devastating fires it destroyed a lot of the time um Amadeus renovated the town and
The castle grants blends to his son and she Rose From the Ashes and resumed its title as a person a golden age of a series of brilliant princes and I read into the French royal family and received duchy or two from the king with Calvinism converting people’s minds across
Germany and Switzerland the bishop of Geneva and a number of other monastic institutions were expelled from Geneva refusing let me see the golden overflow River was let me see Lakers gorgeous but it’s not Jamila even in this golden age for Geneva with colleges and academies several religious
Public orders relocating here with that Triumph of protestant calvinisms [Music] the cathedral then the maccabean chapter than the bishop himself [Laughter] um [Music] staying at the new hotel in Leisure and residential complexes On them right thanks but I let it pass me by such as my dedication to you but the warm welcome extended by The Franciscan monks in honesty around 1535 to the bishop gave way to some disagreements arising from cohabitation and sharing to the point the separation had to be envisaged that
Could only be to The Bishop’s Advantage the latter gained the support of Rome in remember Interesting The Francesco franciscans and obtaining sole use of the church and the convent on Whose site the new Bishops Palace was built in much later Francis the hosts the church cathedral in just before artists used for its Renovations of course people or composite orders of those 12 columns ranged in pairs Savannah flamboyant
Check out the pump there more you feel for them by Francesca they don’t even met someone new invited them to move in they invited their friend to me again and then then to invited their boss to
Come around who took over slide Lane down the law and then got the ultimate law on his side got rid of Francesca all the flamboyant Geneva Catholic orders parading around like peacocks I hope they hope is going to be their holiday home Under The Bishop’s watchful eye
Having an Episcopal time all the way to the peninsula you could probably take the footpath up to Chappelle so as your room lived in the 10th Century so such a popular opponent foreign with all the restaurants under and Beyond follows the line of the cliff that the castle was built on
But there are a couple of antiquated Alleyways through a lot of the time would have been four-story Timber buildings though with balconies and fairly narrow streets I did make it up to the castle at the top there’s not really anywhere to park at the top and while it is a nice sort
Of sunset type of a thing to do with a loved one there aren’t really any expensive views that you can see sunsets from it’s a pleasant square but I couldn’t go inside at that time come the time of the French Revolution roofie had some big Ideas the French Revolutionary Army opened
Up vines really disrupting the established order they wanted to Define what France was industrial techniques were driven by the hydraulic power of those attractive rivers and canals exiting that they play a craft Lake tomdom roof his urban development plan to take him to perform created photos
Of this Crossroads big plans that the sardinians appreciated in 1915 Customs protection and one unit of measurement and money and weight was a revolution to this Frontier time and all of France for which it was rather fun but like introducing the
Euro the whole of Europe every town in Duke had its own very valid weights and measures they’re treating the nightmare 1.1 like the beginning that survived in all of them British decimalization similar but different what do you think you’ve got a bargain
1.1 to 0.9 revolutionary stability if that doesn’t sound too much of an oxymoron enabled early tourism and this is for it’s the second largest natural lake plot and blooms in some mittens there is in temperature from 40 degrees Fahrenheit in the winter to 75
Degrees Fahrenheit in the summer rod and line brings in 30 tons of fish [Music] thank you like anything you might not be able to tell us like Hennessy uh modest but highly photographed Palace of the island the 12th century Lord that wanted
To be positioned like he was parting the very Waters themselves we did a bit [Music] [Applause] mint archives and a seat of Chief Justice of the alternative capital naturally attracting lawyers attorneys and notaries the cop work buildings were built
Nearby the house of Savoy transferred its capital to Turin and it survived the Golden Age I mean cezanne’s time much later it had to be saved from Demolition became a trade Union Center in a philanthropic Society I always thought it was an early church idlisa Maurice was the
Dominican Convent 12th century First Church near the castle built over in savoying flamboyant again the aisles still have irregularities that show that it was built in stage [Music] foreign seasons do get to the other side of the lake and even if only to enjoy the views from on high in summers
Certainly the old town is very much a wealthy party place it’s a reasonable size tone and people come in from all the villages so you can speak to a local just the same as well there was
These two guys on the bridge as you go over to the one of the two most characterful bars cafes in the old time sheltered by the 12th century flat iron building you have to squeeze past and they these two blonde girls are you from Belgium the guy said in French they started chuckling
And they were away there were all four of them from the same time but it’s a big enough time that people don’t know everyone I think they were looking to pick up the tourists myself because I’ve got to bring it home I haven’t mentioned civilia and the cloche the Bell
Factory Museum thing it’s uh the biggest was the biggest Bell Foundry and made the savoyard Bell that’s in Notre Dame biggest and oldest but much newer than Gloucester Bell Foundry that made the Bell that signaled the American Revolution victory over the British [Music] [Applause]
Where’s Waldo I’d have thought the absence guessing game was a very easy one but who knows the answer is Piedmont the French Italian border America and South America just so you know there’s a happy ending to this next story because it gets a bit dark who’s ever heard of Peter Waldo Valdez yeah
1170 I know so trendy in my finger on the pulse of current affairs Peter Waldo awoke to a deeper sense of Reality by the sudden death of a friend and sold all his goods and started to feed the poor and Brotherhood of poor man and solidarity
And all that he had the bible translated into Provencal and he took a triple vow of Chastity which has nothing to do with a number of orifices of the human body like our architectural Cambridge graduate lecturer who might have had us believe includes poverty and obedience wondering and
Preaching and Justin Francis of Assisi had similarity it is a similar sort of time but he was embraced by the church while Walder and his disciples police were sanctioned by Beau panics III but to preach he had to get permission from the local Authority the Archbishop of Leon
Denounced them as Heretics and expelled them from his diocese that meant the movement once spread that Biden condemned the heresy in one breath and burned alive thank you also set up a home in the sparsely populated Piedmont valleys periodically they enjoyed
The protection of the accounts and related Dukes of Savoy the exchangements for payment of taxes for their labor was more unusual at the time for paying taxes they were separate from the Roman Church they liked it there it was their Garden lead when they stayed for centuries
From 1200 to 1550 they have no churches of their own holding their assemblies in fields and caves you mentioned Calvinism earlier when news of Martin Luther’s Defiance of paper Authority started the Reformation reached the valleys Protestant reformers and Switzerland invited
Some of Team Waldo who are Synod of party type thing for church leaders but this got these reclusive team Waldo drawing attention to themselves putting their head above the parapet so to speak they’ve been Protestant for centuries before this new protestantism 13
Years later they were being persecuted France and a secret treaty to vigorously exterminate everything which did take 100 years to get going but Piedmont Easter was a terrible massacre in the developing in 1659 Puritan poet John Milton helped create horror amongst
Influence them into resisting and trying to stay in their centuries settled value relying on Divine protection which are French and soyad Prince of movement was able to overcome ten thousand of the 14 000 inhabitants of the valley were killed or taken prisoner and sold into slavery
Venetian Traders what demographic vertical Catholicism May kill me survivors were escorted into Exile by Swiss and savoying guards across Monson East passing January we’re heading back through Jorah but this is all going on where I usually travel on further from anise South to
Provost there’s the route Napoleon you can take if you’re a glutton for extensive hard work but while those Hermits took a slightly different route from Piedmont but no less arduously even in a car they didn’t have cars in the 15th century only 2 500 of them survived to reach the destination of Geneva
Oh no I’m having such a 21st century Moon first world problem when there is Third World Europe of course brexit we’re heading for a third world Britain on arrivals of one of those Hermits scattered to the Protestant Known World the most zealous resisted their Fuji camps and under the
Persuasive oratory and Military skills of them spiritual leader recruited some locals and 900 men went back to resist a glorious return reclaimed their Piedmont Homeland the lost cause they’ll do you may be thinking William of Orange had been forming an alliance of protestant States at this
Time however Britain had quietly been invaded by the Dutch an almost bloodless coup the Glorious return was a guerrilla Commando Ray by Waldo’s Wanderers but also a proxy war like we know today by greater powers and certainly a cold war as far as Louis France was concerned no women and
Children for the Glorious return from Lake Limo diesel and Monson East to reach bobio police skirmishes had them down to 300 men but it was the Savoy Duke that wasn’t really committed and didn’t think he should be doing all the hard work for Louis in France and Catholic Savoy joined them
Protestant Grand the Lions and let all Waldo’s followers go back to their valleys ironically Arnold the leader of Waldo’s Warriors was actually born French in the treaty giving the peace said that all French in the valley had to return home Arnold was born just inside France had to leave
Which had taken him 10 to 14 days from giniver to Falcons they moved away but they took hostages the Richer the better to act as guides though Waldo’s Wanderers could get through a town and over a bridge then sell the hostage this worked well in solangeev getting around egg Crush in heavy
Rain laughing Western Mont Blanc they got to the tricky burgers and some points who tried to lure the Glorious return with copious hospitality but it was only a delaying tactic until the militia arrived but news had spread and The Villages were all empty along their route so there was
No one to pay for the provisions that they took called us mountaineering for them balconese is long and they got lost separated and some never rejoined sliding steep slopes on the bottoms Against All Odds they overcame 250 000 French troops like Stamford Bridge reached the whole
Germanaska by the morning while those Warriors started to get a bit brutal and cruel though their Shadow their pursuers that had hemmed men into fighting the French they’d slaughtered at the next Bridge after capture they were splitting up and fighting for their individual valleys podio is
Perched in a spectacular location amongst Orchards and postures the dispersing brutal Bunch had their eyes on their individual prizes no you can get a very warm reception in Forest Area Valdez they do use the Italian mistake but they are quite independent from it oh no it’s a story of survival
Rather than a happy ending but anyway we’re heading north back through Jorah towards Britain a short Channel Crossing and the police aren’t usually military trained like the French yondon you found something to like And subscribe about [Music] take a swears After so many garages tell me the motel is Mot and cutting action on their throat and then mutilate a bit further and getting it back getting it repaired and back back to England and sorted out once it’s in England from the half-baked job that the French garageist overconfident underskilled
And ha fitted out work on the motel after that I’ve delivered my next load down to my barn and an empty and I’m heading north back to England I’ve done a lot of I got out of the Habit a long time ago now really of putting three liters of
Vegetable oil in my diesel tank making sure that I had a 50 50 mix with what was already diesel that was already there um it came to parity with the price of vegetable oil and the price of diesel the seams to be coming round again though especially in
France there’s a vegetable oil shortage don’t know especially when it comes to two for one or third shelves are empty almost immediately I’m working out for yourself people aren’t daft two Euros 10 for one liter of Gasol diesel for your vehicle um you can take advantage of the who for one offered
For markets in France aren’t that great on their special offers um three Euros 50 for three liters once again two Euros 10 for one liter even without any special offers on if they’re off the shelf straight away two Euros 50 for two liters yeah it’s fairly commonplace fairly straightforward why
Is there a vegetable oil shortage we all know why but no one’s writing it in a paper up again there for ethical reasons and for health and safety reasons uh Renewables hydroelectric power needs to be accelerated more than governments say that it needs to excel be accelerated
Because nuclear is the option the other option nuclear isn’t an option it’s a potential disaster Fail-Safe to put in place of course [Music] it’s the ethics of oil from Russia that’s always going to be a problem type hello [Applause]
Here in the valley beautifully over designed it’s over designed in the thickness of the rusty steel that’s been used but so utility functional building and it’s designed and detailed better than so much in Britain well that’s not that’s supposed to be art that’s not just utility
Is that the architect is that the financial setting setups don’t need to focus on making money so much perhaps it’s all reputation because there isn’t so much work about [Music] a method statement is usually a written way of doing something safely they are all in my head
But uh I’m very aware of my method statements and I can consider them very safe you can remove a hazard you can replace a hazard it can isolate a hazard or you can protect from uh that’s from most effective to least effective so like PPE that protects you that’s like the
Least effective measure you can’t don’t need to protect something that you’ve removed as a risk so it is something that is used only one trade in an area of a building site at any time that is a
Method statement method um for me I’m only ever going to be the only trade in the bar that is an elimination of um that slapstick type humor that you get in building site sometimes not really so much one-upmanship just a sort of arrogance of a big fish in a small sea or um
I’m the most important person for me for my price um I have eliminated trying to eliminate I’ve replaced um temporary foreign to get to a level as much as possible you have to erect these structures and that’s a risk scaffolding
I’m talking about really there aren’t I um you can isolate things with administrative Controls and Engineering controls just change things how things are done you won’t see me with gloves on um you will see me with masks on I’m just emphasizing this because you will

My minor actor of rebellion in that respect was um using double insulated British cables but with a French single inch slated Earth one of the biggest um tricks is that um the Earth on the Three core on Earth on the British regs the Earth isn’t insulated
