No, I'm not jealous......I like where I am now, if I could just have some new knees,and 20/20 vision.......I'd have to go back to work!

i KNOW THE FEELING , MY KNEES ARE KNACKERED TOO , AND I DO MISS WORK AND THE CRACK WITH THE LADS ON THE CREWS

Margaret Pilkington · 20-02-2005, 20:42

I do miss the crack sometimes, but on the whole wouldn't go back for all the tea in China......too much b****y hassle. Funnily enough I still dream about work.

Park it is very sad indeed because I work so hard some nights and at the end of the month what is in the pay packet......zero, zilch, nothing.
Nothing could be sadder than that!

i STILL DREAM ABOUT WORK SOMETIMES BUT IT IS USUALLY THE BAD PARTS OF WORK AND WHAT A LOVELY FEELING WHEN YOU WAKE UP (SOMETIMES IN A SWEAT) AND REALISE YOU WERE DREAMING AND THAT YOU WILL NEVER BE PUT IN THAT SORT OF POSITION AGAIN. JUST KEEP SENDING THE PENSION...........

sorry to interrupt thread, but chris ryan taught me for 2 years, 1974-76, @ moor end in ossy. he was the best teacher l ever had l just wrote & starred in plays for 2 years ,& painted- though l m still a bit hazy about long division. he also played cricket for enfield, before going to peel park. he lived in great harwood & l used to know his daughter cathy.

Garinda..... you are not interrupting a thread. It is WE who have hijacked the thread with our reminiscences which go back to before Mr Ryan......and then we descended into whimsy. It needs putting back on track......Thank you for doing it.

Further to the following posts re. Mr. Gleave, he was pretty nifty with the ruler on your knuckles aswell - not to mention a big heavy book on the head! Yet he still managed to be well-liked & respected somehow ..
