I love dark humour but too soon toto


Good that nobody was hurt. Nevertheless a fire is terrifying for anyone present. Plus the fact that a fire (even a small one) can easily ruin a small business and certainly causes much stress/ distress


Best wishes to everyone involved

I don't think we should be making jokes about such a serious issue. If you think of any more wisecracks, just hold the line for now.

Anyway..


The fire brigade were back this lunchtime.


Evidently the fire brigade removed much of the interia of the kitchen.. last night. Panels and the like to prevent

the fire from breaking out again. There were a lot of people on site this morning. There is a strong smell of smoke / fire even from the outside with the doors shut.

With Insurance Loss Adjusters and fire inspections and refurbing and refitting to be done I would think it will be some time before Tandoori Nights can reopen.

My response was a joke, in case you didn't realise. Music related.. following on from TheCat's previous joke...

Vegetable oil being heated and left unattended .....


Three members of staff left before the arrival of the Brigade .....


The fire was discovered when the owner smelt burning and discovered a fire in the kitchen .....


Oh dear. Doesn't sound good, not least from an insurance point of view.

Twice-yearly deep cleans of extraction units are usually mandatory requirements for insurance purposes. Any restaurant that does not do that is asking for trouble.


I would remind everyone of the River Cafe fire some years back; their extraction was kept clean but a pan flame went too high and was caught by the extraction vents. Air moves through them at high speed andcthis meant the fire was pulled into the whole system in about two seconds. The point is that if flame gets into the extraction it doesn?t really matter how clean it is or not, that?s pretty much game over for the kitchen.


Of course, if it isn?t cleaned regularly then it presents a far greater danger in general, especially to other parts of the building, hence the insurance requirements for thorough, professional cleaning every six months.


I have no idea of Tandoori Nights extraction was cleaned properly, as I can?t be sure what the fire brigade mean by ?large deposits of grease? - though it doesn?t sound good - but I fervently hope it was otherwise they?re in even more trouble.


Leaving oil unattended...idiots.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
