In light of it being National Engineers Week, it feels appropriate to highlight one of our engineers and delve into precisely what the job itself entails. That means I’m back with another Day in the Life segment, and this month I shadowed one of our talented Senior Service Engineers – Jason Watson.

As I’m generally office-based, I was excited to observe how the backbone of our business operates, and learn more about how the practical side of things work. As soon as I saw Jason arriving at the Charlton depot car park, I set about capturing potential social media content and documenting our day by taking notes on how a typical morning might unfold.

Weather forecasters have warned that blisteringly hot weather is here to stay for the rest of summer – possibly remaining until autumn – bringing us the hottest summer in decades!

A Met Office spokesperson declared that parts of London and the South East could experience highs exceeding 30°C by Thursday, with the roasting weather sticking around for a while yet.

With nothing in the forecasts suggesting we should expect any imminent change from the current conditions, many Britons are attributing the sudden hot weather to the old St. Swithin’s Day folklore which suggests that the weather on July 15 will set the tone for the next 40 days. Should that be the case, we suggest you stock up on sun protection and cold drinks immediately!
