He asked what I knew about sprinklers, I rattled off some gear, said I know my way around a valve set, change P/S n sh*t on my own. Set pump cut in's on my own, draining down and jacking up ect. Really not rocket science.He said that's the best answer to that question I've had and puts you infront of everybody else in thay respect. Reckons they can teach a spark to price wet, doesnt work the other way around...I was trying not to get my hopes up and initially was indifferent about the prospect, but having had time to think about it....alot. Im keen as mustard.Also Tyco fire australia just got bought out by evergreen (nfi??) So expect something to go down there I would say..I do a lot of fire sealing of pipes here in Perth. Tyco bought one sprinkler company here (National Fire) and have taken them from a major player to f*cking nowhere and I wouldn't be surprised to see them shut. People don't want to deal with Tyco.Evergreen is just an investment firm in tbe US - they would have bought the company to sell it after stripping the fat and ripping as much capital as they can out.The word here is that Siemens have bought Tyco......haven't seen anything concrete though.

Which we all expected.Confirmed evergreen bought them if im getting the name right. The fire division though. Tyco security ect will remain..

She's pretty dosed up at the moment, but wakes up every now and then and seems to be in good spirits and making some jokes, despite being a bit uncomfortable (understandably). Said she's glad it's over with.Apparently they should have the results of the biopsy in about a week. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
