I was at the National Curry Chef of the Year competition in Bournemouth.


My then-client forced me to phone BBC Asia and see if they were going to cover the curry chef story anyway (under pain of sacking). I was fairly junior in my PR career at the time and naively did what she asked. While everything was going on in New York, India and Pakistan were amassing troops (and I think something nuclear) on the Kashmiri border.


The journalist I spoke to was kind but genuinely appalled, and asked me if I didn't realise that the world was never going to be the same again. I realised he was right and so anaesthetised myself with gin, and lost the client anyway.

    • I've been using Homecert for all my electrical work at my flat in London for several years.  They have done small jobs like this one ( fitting a new security light to the patio) and big ones like fitting a new consumer unity, and also tricky ones like investigating and sorting out a problematic power circuit. They are extremely reliable and efficient and the work is always of a very high quality. Communications with the office are, in addition, excellent. Their work is economically reasonable and properly costed. I cannot see myself bothering with any other London electricians as long as Homecert exists
