done

Sorry to hear this

RIP sir

6 DAYS
About the events of April 1980 and for anyone old enough it interrupted the snooker.
Maybe its because ive read and watched lots about the Iranian Embassy siege that i found this film an interesting draw.
Rusty firmin was an adviser on the movie hes famously photographed on the ground floor with out his gloves.
The film covers all the important points but doesn’t dig deep enough for me,following mainly Rustys section into the action.The sad fact of the assault is the SAS team haven’t to this day been awarded for their gallantry for their actions,and sadly some not with us now.

It involved a bull whip,Stetson,blackcurrant jelly and a stool…

As an ex NCB worker,born and brought up in a tight coal mining community,decimated by Mrs Ts government,ill keep my feeling to my self.
Apart from respect due to an old frail lady who will be missed by her friends children and grand children.
RIP

I do a lot of this specialist company’s come to collect hard drives to dispose of them.you’ll probably fined like on the last big job i did 200+ PCs where replaced with new over three departments one only using email.
I asked about it and was told it cost a little extra to get a few more PCs and all new was a fire insurance and fraud related thing.

Left school at 15 Luckily got a job washing cars a week later then after a month went to work for the national coal board,one year later out on strike for twelve months.Couldn’t claim anything so jobbed about laboring,building ect.
The pit closed a year after that,i never signed on.Too proud/daft/embarrassed i don’t know which.Again worked behind bars on doors labored again through the day.
To this day after nearly thirty years of on and off work ive never claimed a penny.
reading that i must be daft.

Always noticeable when great characters of the forum don’t post for a while.
My thoughts are with you and your family and a speedy recovery to you both.
