  1. Some of you may know, that my son had been having problems with a dealer and a so called warranty. The dealer has now washed his hands of the car,and it is now costing a small fortune to put right. So Being fed up with this I did some research and came up with this artcle from Warranty direct. The motorists position was considerably strengthened in March 2003 under the EU sale of goods directive 1999/44/EC,when the burden of proof was shifted squarely onto the shoulders of the dealer during the the crucial first six months of ownership. However, researchers found that the majority of people simply had no knowledge of the change. The new regulations mean the dealer must prove beyond doubt that the vehicle was of 'satisfactory quality' and not bearing an 'inherent fault' at the time of sale. "Unfortunately, there is no exact definition of the term 'satisfactory quality' but the law provides the consumer with a significant level of protection" explains Duncan McClure Fisher of Warranty direct, who adds "however too few realise how strong a position they are in if things do go wrong with the vehicle". Although under no obligation to inform the customer of their rights,a survey found only one in ten car dealers explained the new levels of protection automatically afforded to them. Despite the revision to the act last year, the onus is still very much on the car buyer to know where they stand. With the British used car market worth £32bn anually,Warranty Direct advises motorists to become familiar with the regulations and understand the true extent of their rights before they buy

  5. Around Christmas time I am always offered a drink by my clients,and each time I have to refuse,One won't hurt they say,but when you are working with animals,and driving from client to client ,one is one to many in my book,and if you are not sure of how much you can drink,ie half pint or one pint, one short or two,and each persons tollerances to alcahol can differ from the next. All in all if you are driving, no matter what time of year,DON'T DRINK
