Brian couldn’t fault the way the technician explained it all. She showed him the pictures on the screen.

 



Oh, she was very nice, very nice, and tried to explain everything in detail. I couldn’t fault the way that she put everything over. I mean, and as I say, at the end of it when she found this small leak, she showed it me on the screen. I mean, I looked at it, but obviously it was so minute I didn’t even know, she pointed out where it was and that, but I mean it wouldn’t have meant anything at all to me, but obviously it did to them [laughs].
 
Yep, yep, and did you have to wait long when you got there?
 
No, no, very good.
 
Yeah.
 
I went for a certain time and within five minutes they come down and collected me.
 
Okay.
 

There was no trouble. It all went everything smooth.
