Tilly's a bloke! I also assumed he was a woman when I first saw his name. He was at Huddersfield as an A/G a few years ago. He's not a SWP member. I met him a couple of times when he was involved in a miscarriage of justice campaign. A good lad too.

:oops: I'll ask around on Monday - my guess he has gone if I did not know he was a bloke but will get someone to track him down and get back to you.

Sale D.O.

Post by rhino49 »

Managers only working on special deliveries and helping a few customers at the callers office - no staff in at Sale but sadly, for the first time we are informed that some of ours were seen at another local office - no precise details available yet - good picket attendance - one van turned up but returned to base as the gates were locked whilst the managers were out on specials. Again we have had a good and understanding response from the public who have approached the picket for information and at last the sun was shining.
We wish to serve - but we will not be servile

Thanks mate. I know he's a Huddersfield lad. The last I heard of him, he had fallen off his bike one morning, but that was five or six years ago. I think his dad was from Eastern Europe, hence the name.

K.W Bristol O.K I would have liked to have seen more faces, not just the regular mob. You have to be in it to win it. We did have an area manager join our line this morning.
