Re: WILL YOU STAND BY THE C.W.U. ?
If we went on strike now wouldnt it be illegal?
we signed a deal promising not to strike for 3 years so therefore the already weak union really has no fight. What if we did go on strike and we broke the agreement, we could be sacked for unoffical strike action!
Would the union save our jobs? (even if it was loads of us)
Previous history of the weak union suggests we wouldnt have a job to come back to after a strike (my local reps are very freindly with management) Im still a member and know lots that have left the union, im very close to leaving and joining another union.

Mighty good of you to share your experiences smoker...........I'm sure brothermagrew , like myself, cannot wait to hear more of your transvestite encounterssmokerjim wrote:"Yer know that M25, right?

I do hope that this will cease any potential hostilities between you, brothers - just let me know if my peacekeeper duties are required once again.

I don't care who you are, that's deeply suspect right there

dvbuk55, I at first thought he had been drinking bottles of meths
but then changed my mind as he is on a peace keeping mission. Suppose I should be lucky that he has never heard of Antonine's Wall
I believe they are legend

Ingredients
1 sheep's stomach or ox secum, cleaned and thoroughly, scalded, turned inside out and soaked overnight in cold salted water
heart and lungs of one lamb
450g/1lb beef or lamb trimmings, fat and lean
2 onions, finely chopped
225g/8oz oatmeal
1 tbsp salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp ground dried coriander
1 tsp mace
1 tsp nutmeg
water, enough to cook the haggis
stock from lungs and trimmings
Ah the good old Legio Nona Hispana (Ninth Spanish Legion) was a Roman legion alleged to have disappeared in North Britain in about AD 117. Is the film worth watching?

Re: WILL YOU STAND BY THE C.W.U. ?
Of course I have heard of it, and very grateful of it too....it trained the Teuchters into not straying too far south ( The civilised peoples of London & the south east often go on missions to convert the heathen peoples.....but there are some heathens that are beyond our redemption ). Brother Magrew would be so kind as to meet with me to discuss how close to civilisation you are.....don't forget to bring the haggis & 80/ with youbrothermagrew wrote: Always happy to read about or hear more of smokerjim'sencounters

Re: WILL YOU STAND BY THE C.W.U. ?
I would say the film is worth watching and the recipe for haggis is far too complicated for someone who just about manages beans on toast - though believe it or not my butcher is an award winning haggis maker - absolutely true...............not quite plucked up the courage to try it though.............and having read the ingredients I think I'll give it a miss
