Progress chaser, Donald ?, met him in BRI, a couple of months ago.

Setting/marking out, my main department.... Maurice from Billington, Arthur Monk, semi-pro drummer...Dereck from Ossy, off Thwaites Rd if I remember correctly..... also, Brian, Kevin, Peter Whiteside, Ray Smith, & charge hand Alan Smith.

Many more names floating around my head, thanks, Tex, (don't think I know you) for making me think of old workmates, many of whom impacted upon my life more than I probably gave them credit for.

'Ged'

Well that post tells me who you are KiTchener not so much the post but the signature Ged, all those names you've mentioned I remember too, sadly some are no longer with use, in fact a lot are no longer with us, I still see George one of the plumbers, on a regular basis, his mother in law lives very near me and he still visits her often even though he's married again after his first wife sadly died quite a while ago. Think the last time I saw you Ged was when I was with my wife and she was an agent for a diet company and she got her stocks from your wife, that must be 25 years ago.
