Who’s watching the solar eclipse tonight? 🌘

🕖 The eclipse will begin during the evening, with the maximum eclipse expected just after 7pm

⚠️Never look directly at the Sun during the eclipse without certified solar eclipse glasses or other approved viewing equipment, as this can cause permanent eye damage. ⚠️

However you plan to view this celestial phenonium, make sure you’re keeping safe.

Top eclipse‑watching safety tips:

🌒Use proper solar viewing glasses, look for the specific code stamped or printed clearly on the frame ISO 12312-2 written as ISO 12312-2:2015

🌒Check your lenses for scratches or damage before using them.

🌒DO NOT wear regular sunglasses, these will not protect you

🌒Avoid looking directly at the sun without certified eclipse protection.

🌒Don’t use your phone or camera to look at the eclipse unless you have a solar filter.

🌒Supervise children to make sure they’re using their eye protection correctly.

Enjoy the show safely and let us know if you're planning on watching tonight! 🌑✨

🧯 Types of Fire Extinguishers 🧯

Choosing the correct extinguisher for the specific type of fire is essential for safe and effective fire control 🔥

There are six fire classifications you need to know:

Class A — Solid combustible materials (paper, wood, textiles)

Class B — Flammable liquids (petrol, diesel, oil)

Class C — Flammable gases (natural gas, propane)

Class D — Combustible metals (sodium, potassium, lithium)

Class F — Cooking oils and fats (deep fat fryers)

Electrical — Electrical equipment fires (short circuits, faulty appliances)

⚠️ Always identify the fire class before selecting an extinguisher. Using the wrong type can intensify the fire and increase risk.
