garinda got it correct, I worked for THE COUNCIL for 40 years, Accrington coporation before that.
so jaysay if in doubt read the instuctions, you always seemed like a nice bloke when we spoke on the phone and you were very pleasant when we shook hands.
I think this thread has attracted some shapers and movers, and yes I did put time in for nothing, attending evening meetings and working past closing time , ask gjones he used to come in my office late fridays and apart from the cleaners we were the only ones there.

Its quite obvious you have one up on me, as you seem to know me, which is always an advantage, when in this sort of debate, if you don't want to reveal your Identity on here, which is quite understandable, send me a PM so I'm not shooting in the dark, doing that sometimes means you miss the intended target

the names the same, and i introduced myself to you at a mayors inorguration (cant remember which one but it was a few years ago now), which in light of the thread topic could suggest I know what I am talking about, possibly, well I might, then again im not sure, ok i dont,
I am typing this in crayon as i am not allowed anything sharp in here.
ok nurse Ill get back in bed.
if i made an instantly forgetable impression and you havent a clue who i am then i will send a pm, I will have to talk to my therapist first though.

Well I've only been to one Mayoral do since 1993 that was 2000 when Doug Hayes was Mayor, on that occasion I met quite a few Officers who I had spoken to often on the phone over preceding years, you must have worked in the Works Department or Environmental Health, so a PM might help

Yeah, ok.
I believe you.
It's just the other '95%' you've got to convince.

His column might have been put to better use, like explain why we thought he should deny those who elected him the right to have a say on Europe and why he put party before people, instead of the unadulterated crap he decided to bore the pants of every one with
