Send me a cheque. What before you have proved that your lot can achieve anything. No thanks I'll stick with the £2.25 the GMB take off me each week for the best protection and best value you can get anywhere in this industry.

I was thinking of coming up to Carlisle next week but our lot will only let you lot win to make you feel good about yourselves because we are such a bunch of patronising [edited by admin].

Also can't stand the smell of sheep [edited by admin].

My mistake, £117 per year, over a small association that would be £2925 per year...sounds very expensive. Especially when you consider by virtue of the 1976 act and 1847 act drivers have the right to appeal to the magistrates (which for the most part is free), that is of course if they fail to make the LA understand the situation.

Even then if you need a solictior I am quite sure a clued up one could be found locally, even if pushed in the right direction.

So much for the best protection :lol:

I take it your PH? sorry horses for courses, we dont do PH.

After yestesdays thrashing at the hands of the mighty Crewe Alex, I was maybe overly confident at CUFC's greatness :D

PS

You got to get reallllly close to a sheep to smell one :oops:

Someone said our lot were patronising allowing Rotheram to beat us.

Obviously someone else got the hump five minutes from the end and banged in a couple for our first away win of the season

Sorely tempted to come up to Carlisle next week but have a heavy workload.

Knocking up leaflets to help the door to door campaign, helping with the EDM on long working hours that drivers are being forced to work.

There is also a rumour that nuclear waste is going to be dumped in Blackpool.

Our members in the nuclear waste industry have raised a formal grievance, claiming it might be to dangerous and that they could get contaminated.

Also going on a union learning rep course so as I can get clued up on where to get proper help for drivers with literacy, numeracy or language problems. Getting them through the topographical test properly is something the GMB takes very seriously.

Wouldn't mind doing a bit of teaching myself in years to come if I can escape this bloody industry.

Could go up to Sefton and teach your mate things like

"T - is for tit"
