Posted By Jeffrey Watt Lewes Any I have seen recently will have a born on date and expiry date embossed on the inside of them in the form of a date wheel. Surveyors need to replace them every 6 months as they are trained at university to leave them in the parcel shelf of their Mondeo so that UV from sunlight can polymerise the plastic making it fragile and useles. Kind regards Jeff
