Anyone have a risk assessment template for putting up different types of bunting? Also the erection of flag poles, do I have to take into account what would happen if it came loose? How about contact dermatitis from touching latex all day? Will my 20 year old wooden ladder suffice? I have to get it done today as I won't be in a fit state tomorrow!!

Report it as a RIDDOR before anything happens, then at least you're covered.

Maybe I should put my ladders on the COSHH register because I think they may be hazardous to health....

Try the fire brigade, I've seen them doing it!

The only thing I find amusing in that line is the word erection, time for me to grow up?

Yup, if it ain't broke in 20 years it must be a goodun, plus useful if you get struck by lightning!
