They sent 3 guys out in the morning to do packets in diffrent areas but all came back when we were on the line. I did see a van going up the duel carriage way about half 12 with 2 guys in it. I didnt get a good look but they didnt look like Livingston workers the driver had a dressed shirt and a high vis on looked like a manager from somewhere.

Wonder if it was a couple of managers fae Brox/Bgate they drove thru oor line at 7.30am
both had on hi viz jackets they were in BX 9 they never came back thru the picket line .

As there were no RM vans from the mail centre this morning there were nae specials to deliver ,
so maybe it was those 2 muppets

dudleylicious,
I couldnt see what van they had since they were at the other side of the duel carriage way and i only notice them at the last min.
They were passed the depo exits and heading to the deep park round about tho. Im 100% sure it was not any Livingston worker or managers.

there was deffanetly only one guy who stayed in working, if it wasn't a manager then we should maybe should phone the polis and report a stolen van. :Very Happy Seen Ally Bwyant and someone else oot in a van on my way home might have been them.
Does anyone know whats happening with the mail centre on Monday ? as jambopepsi says theres nae point working an hour for free.
