Summary
In today’s podcast Adrian Lawrence our in house financial expert talks about Dyson the vacuum cleaner and innovation company. They are making a claim against the EU for £200m of damages. The claim is based on flawed tests which favoured convential vacuum cleaners instead of dyson’s bagless versions, the test were based on empty bags which in a conventional vacuum takes more energy in the real world than in the test conditions.
Because Dyson’s vacuum clearer are bagless they use a steady amount of energy if they are full or empty and hence their issues with the test used by the EU.
Dyson originally lost the case but won on appeal and the rating standard as annulled in a consumer victory, Dyson now want to get compensation for their lost sales.

Web Entrepreneur, traveller, family guy.
I've been developing, or at least attempting to develop websites for more than 20 years, I setup a domain registrar back in 2004, which I sold in 2016, I am better known for a very popular publishing site called Article Alley which grew to a membership of 550,000 at its peak
I am rebuilding Article Alley at the moment and it will be a focus of mine again in 2019.
During 2018 I have mosty worked on a site called Reporting Accounts, which has more than 4.1million business listings, these use information from the UK companies house and combines that together with 37 other sources to give hopefully a great single source for company information in the UK.
It still needs work on it, but I am pleased with the progress so far.
As you can see from the list on the other side of this page, I have a good number of websites, I had as many as 300 at one time when I worked full time as a web entrepreneur but at the moment I only work part time on all of this.
At the moment I work as an Accountant by day, and a web entrepreneur by night ! I enjoy travel this last year I have been to Cuba and over Xmas I am going to Cape Verde, my next project will be a deal finder for holiday bargains, I am certain I woud use that myself so it would pay for itself in no time !
Anyway if you have time and are interested please feel free to browse away through some of my sites, most of them user the blogamatic template which I am kinda stuck on.
I hope you enjoy.
