Just so long as it isn't Euston!
It wasn’t, I went to Paddington.

I have done the annual change back to GMT - 7 on bike computers, 2 x radios, 1 alarm clock, 1 oven clock, 1 microwave clock and 4 watches - everything else changes automatically. There's still one more watch to do, but as it's the one I keep at work, that can wait until I go back in just over a week.
The clocks go back at 0200, tomorrow!
 
Would have said that, as you describe it, it was a definite H&S nonono. Far to easy for something to go seriously wrong.

Germany does take a more "robust" approach to such things, the city farm where I used to work being a great example: two metre (6') high walkways with no railings over bare earth were the norm, repaired by the children themselves. On the other hand, when I worked in the workshop there I could throw anyone out who I thought was a danger to themselves and others. In this context I'd be stuck with them "Unless it was really serious". Hmm...

I'll be in Esslingen tomorrow so I'm thinking of dropping by the centre and saying hello, just so the staff there know why I said no, and more importantly, that it wasn't because of them...
