Dates for every occasion

Posted by admin on November 15, 2019 0 comments

Do you cringe inwardly at this time of year when people around you start planning for year-end and social calendars start filling up with all variety of activities and events to celebrate religious events and the like? Are you that person who usually makes excuses after receiving the constant barrage of party invitations? Could you think of nothing worse than going through the festive season alone and single… again. It’s a fact that people get more depressed as the holidays approach and this is mostly as a result of the expectations of society in general around spending time and money on celebrations.

If this is you and you can’t stand it any longer, then you have three choices. The first choice is to avoid and deflect at all costs, the interaction of any kind in favour of your couch, your most comfortable onesie and a never ending stream of junk food designed to replace all the needs which are met through human interaction. Diversion is key for this approach as people will come searching for you and ask you the questions that you are trying to avoid. Recommendations for this approach is to lock the door, let your mobile charge all the way down and leave the lights off so that people think you have gone away on holiday and are uncontactable because you have lost signal in some mysterious island destination. Suggest fake tan at the end of the season to make your story authentic.

Option 2 is: if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em. Whatever you do, don’t join them alone! Sign on to the Duke of Daisy’s website and join their rent a friend service. No reason why you should suffer alone when there are many Dukes and Daisy’s who are more than happy to help you beat the year-end blues and face the maddening crowds of Santa hats with plats fans, loving the mistletoe and wine. Put on your party shoes and head out to year-end events and celebrations with a smile on your face and a handsome companion on your arm.

Which brings us to option three… if you are not a fan of either of the previous options and you are someone who finds crowds and parties emotionally taxing and enjoy serenity and calm, then why not do yourself a favour and take all of the money and time which you were thinking of investing in never-ending celebrations and find a date at Dukes of Daisy who will be the perfect partner for that quiet fire-side sherry with good conversation. Put yourself first and recharge your batteries by sharing quality times with someone who likes the same things that you do. No commitment, no relationship strings attached. Just good times with a friend to keep you company during this potentially stressful and emotional time of year. Beat the year end blues and never find yourself in that awkward position of attending family functions on your own, or be left standing like lonely great uncle John in the corner of the room with no one to talk to. Whatever you decide to do, Dukes of Daisy has the companion for you.

A grant of probate is the confirmation authorising who is the executor who has been elevated to administer the estate of someone who has passed away. The service of probate includes finalising the affairs of the deceased in terms of their finances and assets. Logistical it is by far the most difficult part of the passing of someone is the allocation of these assets and finalisation of the estate as a whole. Before anyone can start to deal with the allocation of assets to heirs of the estate there are other fundamental aspects which will need to be addresses, such as attending to the bank account of the departed. In order for anyone to have the authority to deal with the bank account of a person who has passed, they will need to request a grant of probate in order to act on their behalf. Something like this is easier if arranged prior to the event of your passing and will leave less for your family to consider while they grieve your loss.

Are there instances where a grant of probate Feltham is not required in order to finalise an estate. Lodge Brothers Legal Services attorneys confirm that while there are some instances where this is not required, it is not often something that can be avoided. In an instance where the deceased is a minor child, the parent or legal guardian will be able to attend to the closing of the bank account of the minor child. In situations like this, no will come into play as one needs to be of legal age in order for a will to be recognised. Another instance when probate would not be required is when the estate is worth less than £10,000.

Some of the time, a person may have a joint bank account with another who survives them and who is the recipient of the estate automatically in the event of passing. In a situation like this, probate will not be required however it is always highly recommended that this be confirmed and not simply assumed. An executor would be required to correspond with the banking and other institutions in order to confirm the passing of the person and provide them with proof of death in the form of a death certificate. Once done the application for probate Ashford can be avoided as long as everything is in order. If that is not the case then probate will need to be applied for in the usual way, using your legal attorney as an impartial expert who will be able to guide you seamlessly and safely through the process.

So good is the website, chock-a-block with vital information that the only thing you can’t do when visiting the website, is physically stand inside the marquee and admire your great choice in design!

Whether you are looking for something which is simply quick and easy to erect for multiple purposes, or if you are looking for the most deluxe and professional specific marquee for long lasting use and re-se, all of the features of each type of marquee is listed carefully for you on the website.

Important to know is that the quality of the material from which the marquees are made, no matter which type you choose, is the best quality that money can buy. Never does DIY Marquee advocate for less than satisfactory materials which may compromise the quality of your marquee. Prices will vary accordingly but the quality of the marquee will not. Roof and side panels made from either 500d gsm or 650gsm Rip-stop polyester with polyurethane coating ensures longevity in the material through multiple erections and sustaining in all types of weather conditions.

This is a 4-season marquee suitable for year round use although added safeguards should be taken in snow and other extreme conditions.

Extended or odd-shaped areas and shapes can be covered by connecting several marquees together.

IBS understands that in innovation stands still for no company and that technical innovation such as CAD and CAM systems provide advanced support for your business’s CNC production which is the key to longevity for businesses now and into the future. Without the will to reinvent and improve, your company stands the risk of being left behind the rest of the pack. Never before has it been more important for your business to assess the landscape and adapt to superior products and services.

Business Supplies for the pumps and pumping industrial, Industrial Blower Services Limited, supplies an extensive number of industrial equipment both locally and internationally as well as providing support and solutions for industrial applications, such as dense conveying equipment and Industrial mixing equipment.

Understanding the diverse needs of the pumping industry, IBS has the capacity to equip and maintain a large variety of production customers in specific scenarios. In the production and transportation of powder in industries such as construction, or food, dense conveying systems are typically used for the transferral or transportation of a large volume of powdered material, in the form of chemicals, foods, drugs, pigments, and dyes, across extended distances without resulting in damage to the materials. All the while ensuring that the powder is secured and hygienically maintained through controlling the amount of air consumption which affects the product quality. With this in mind, IBS supplies specialised products designed for low airspeed airflow such as Gvf impianti. Gvf impianti make and produce advanced systems and solutions designed to sustain and develop both production and maintenance cycles with the view of avoiding and solving problems related to the management of the raw materials and end products. Gvf impianti products are involved throughout the entire processing phase, starting from the storage and transport of raw materials, selection and dosage of materials, air treatment and production waste recovery. Food components, chemicals and even granular materials such as pellets for plastic injection moulding can easily be controlled using this innovative equipment.

Similarly, in industries such as food and chemicals, cosmetics and pharmaceutical, businesses rely heavily on accurate industrial mixing equipment in order to implement and sustaining your business. Those which require industrial mixing equipment to play a large role in their production process will understand that the quality of your equipment is integral to product consistency and quality assurance. Whether it be in laboratory or industrial landscapes, production of food, chemicals and plastics, cosmetics and pharmaceutics, requires a number of mixers in order to perform a wide range of mixing operations which can be provided with products such as Granulators, Supporters, sterilizers, Reactors, fibres, Dryers as well as complete modules for mixing powders, liquids and pastes. Arguably the most important aspect of the mixing process would be to ensure that valves are able to be sealed correctly in line with strict compliance and legislative requirements. For this kind of specialised service IBS stocks Mix srl for mixing systems and components and Olocco company for rotary and diverter valves.

Phishing tips for employees

Did you know Phishing currently accounts for 90% of data breaches with 30% of Phishing emails being opened? Most of the time these phishing scams can be prevented with a bit of simple know-how.

It’s important that you remain alert, vigilant and secure at all times. To prevent personal and business data loss.

Below are a few handy tips from our weekly phishing blog.

Tip 1 – Inspect the email display name

A major tactic that phishing criminals use is spoofing the display name of an email. For example, a criminal could setup an email to impersonate your bank. Such as:

On closer inspection, you will notice the domain name @mybank.co.uk. This domain name has nothing to do with your bank. This is a classic attempt of phishing.

Always check the email header. If you think its suspicious flag it and alert your IT Provider.

Tip 2 – Hover but don’t click!

Scammers love to embed malware within links in the email copy. The link looks legitimate until you click it and it’s too late. A simple trick is to simply hover you mouse over the link. And take note of the full link displayed. If the full link it looks suspicious rather flag and delete the email.

Tip 3 – Look out for personal or company detail requests

Most businesses will never ask for sensitive credentials via email. And 100% of the time banks will never request any sensitive information via mail.

Any emails requesting you to email back you login credentials is an instant red flag.

Digitalisation is the latest buzz word in business in the world today and is immeasurably impacting on and redefining businesses across the globe. In a small town in South Africa, a state of the art Hospital was established in 2003 in what was seen as a pioneering partnership between the public and the private sectors. What made this hospital state of the art was the proactive and cutting-edge technical implementation of the country’s first filmless and paperless medical facility. Created from experience gained from installing over 200 integrated filmless imaging networks across the globe, the IT provider for the project combined IT with medical imaging, monitoring and theatre equipment to create a total hospital information service. Paper documents were replaced with electronic patient records, enabling the medical staff “instant access to the patient’s test results and their entire history, including X-ray films, laboratory results, medication information, ECG traces, as well as all the respective specialist reports that go with such examinations.” Nowhere in the world at the time, was IT being stretched to its limits in a 1st / 3rd world blended country.

IBS has capacity for the repairs of Industrial Vacuums, Vacuum Pumps, Biogas Compressor, Portable Vacuum, Pneumatic and Vacuum Conveying and Fabrication systems.

The IBS Blowers Team

Notwithstanding the large range of top-shelf OEM products, including blowers and pressure valves,  which IBS can provide, repair and refurbish, IBS provides excellent customer service which makes them the confident partner for your business. The knowledge and expertise of the engineers within the company benefits your business purely by association.

In many instances it is crucial that the development and design of Blower Pressure Relief valves, such as Kunkle Pressure Relief Valves, is controlled with the correct materials and that are compatible with various types of process fluids, which can range from water to air and may even include corrosive agents. When Pressure relief valves and safety relief valves are required to protect tanks, cylinders and water heaters from high pressures and temperatures, installation, quality, and safety cannot be compromised. After installation, problems such as blockages, damage of internal components and incorrect pressure settings could be disastrous and time-consuming to address. Ensuring that pressure valves are installed and functioning correctly from the start can save your business significantly in the long term.

Whether you are considering using a pressure-release valve as merely as a precaution, or if it is for specifically deigned conditions, pressure-reducing valves are critical in providing a stable pressure in parts of a system that usually operates with lower pressure that a normal system pressure. Relief valves, for example, PentAir Relief Valves, can easily be set to generate a steady stream of pressure as art of its design limits. Simply put, once the valve is set, a steady and reduced pressure stream will be delivered and maintained despite any change in the supply pressure or system load.

There are various designs and types of pressure-regulating valves. Cast iron non-code vacuum relief such that which you will experience with the Kunkle 337 model is best suited for the protection of high volume vacuum pumps, conveying systems and also for light gauge tanks. Model 337 is adequately suited for the protection of medium to low pressure in high volume blowers, compressors, conveying systems and bulk hauling trailers and equipment.

IBS engineers can supply your business with all of the technical data required to ensure that you are utilising the correct products to work in synergy with your requirements for ultimate production levels and on-going productivity with little or no downtime caused by blockages, damage of internal components and incorrect pressure settings.

Dukes of Daisy rent friend service is brilliant, easy and safe to use. The whole concept is based on a platonic dating service and is giving this type of service a fresh face-lift. So many dating sites are simply hook up sites which is great for those who in that space but not everybody may be looking for that type of rendezvous. Obviously everyone is keen on spending time with someone who is intriguing to them on a physical level and that is what you can immediately see from the Dukes of Daisy website. The pictures are there, just like any other dating site, for a person to filter and browse through. Initially you may be drawn to someone because of their appearance.

Marquees for sale

Posted by admin on October 10, 2019 0 comments

As we embrace the slow change in season and slide into the downhill stretch towards the Christmas season, most vendors are shutting up shop for the year. Those who are still busy from the month of October through to the end of the year are doing well! However if you are slowing down, it just means that things will change somewhat in terms of what people are looking for as well as how the marquees need to be dealt with when erecting. If you understand the landscape and embrace the change, continuing through to the festive season will not cause any issues for your business.

 

3x6m commercial demi diy marqueeObviously with marquees being temporary structures, it is of great importance to your business that the marquee which you are using is designed to be extra durable and strong. No matter where or what time of year you use your marquee, these two aspects are what you will need to consider first and foremost. All the DIY marquees are cost-effective without compromising strength and durability to face all types of weather, protecting your investment and your patrons.  The initial outlay for a marquee may appear to be considerable at face value yet the sheer number of choices that you have, ensures that you will certainly find the ideal value for money that you are looking for. Popular marquees can be found on the DIY marquee website. Take for example the traditional 9m by 18m 4 season marquee. Features include 500gsm Duracoretex PVC roof and sides which is wind protective and flame retardant. Made with 38mm & 50mm Steel pipes, this marquee is a steal from just £1800.00.

Commercial Demi marquees for sale are also frequent sellers. A 3m by 6m Demi Commercial marquees for sale is suitable for all seasons with the same 500gsm Duracoretex PVC roof and sides and is similarly flame retardant. With roof and eave braces, purlins and a ground bar and 38mm steel framework, this ideal marquee is selling from just £550. Consider purchasing a green commercial 4x6m marquee with the same specs as the commercial demi, for just £708.

Some tips that can assist you with your marquees as you head into the colder months can help like factoring the effect of the weather on your marquee. allowing for more time to put your marquee up as a result of higher winds and wetter days. It’s a good idea to place your marquees butted up against a permanent structure or well tied to any other permanent or stable structure. Use a walkway with sides if the winds really pick up, and ensure that they are secured fast so that they don’t flap into the passageway. Being colder with fewer daylight hours means you have may struggle more with the erection of your marquee in that you have less time and less dexterity in your hands, especially when you start needing gloves for the outdoors. Another thing to remember is to allow for more maintenance of your marquee. Cold weather, snow, and rain will mean that the marquee is damp or wet at the time when you take it down. You will need to ensure that the marquee is properly dried before you pack it away which can sometimes prove easier said than done, in on-going wet weather. Making sure that the marquee is dry before you pack away will ensure the longevity of all of the materials.

In the event of snow on the horizon, take a look at all of the options for heating that we recommend on the DIY website. A little hint on the heating would be to leave the heating on very low so as to prevent it building up on the roof. In heavy snow, you may want to consider placing wooden floors down, for 2 reasons: They will give your patrons a solid surface but 2. You are raising the height of the floor! This is a good albeit expensive solution especially when you are raising on soft ground which is prone to waterlogging or even on a hard surface where water may be likely to come back up and under the sides.
