Alan France Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 But I went to a grammar school and T-Shirts were not permitted. (After 6 weeks of Latin I was asked to transfer to the woodwork class) Thanks Blatman, always willing to learn. Are you also able to provide a spell checking service? Quote

Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted December 13, 2019 Posted December 13, 2019 Ah Paul, that's the shop floor Variation - Opus 69 😏 Actually, the father of a girlfriend of mine in the 1960s was shop steward for some years until he was promoted to foreman via charge hand. This was his plan all along - be a pain in the backside until you get taken off the floor by being promoted. A lifelong Conservative voter he was. Ultimately he was caught in flagrante delicto with the night nurse on the couch in the works surgery while on the night shift. She was sacked, but he wasn't. Equality? What equality? Quite a character he was - and his daughter shared his over-active libido. This, as she was only fourteen at the time, was quite frustrating. 😇 1 Quote
