Ben123 on this forum. He should remember you, as you used to do leccy work on the fork lifts for Joe O'Leary when Ben was apprenticing in the garage.

Friday 10th December and he's talking about staying in the Europa, if you know it. Mick's got Benn's number and I think he's on this forum.

Mick O'Brien moved to Shannon way back. To be honest, I saw more of him while I was still living in England. Do you know Mick Mac's having his 60th 'do' in Belfast come December? I'm going to contact Mick Obbers and see if he wants me to bring him up and Mick M. sent a general invite out to...

I knew Pete Lee from before Barkers, used to drink with him at the BSA club with his brother Rob(school girlfriends in common), up from the Mackadown. I remember the Imp as well, that was cream coloured weren't it? Sharp bend by the Manor House could have been the cause? We used to try and turn...

Laurence Meade doesn't ring a bell. A man(name withheld due to legal reasons) was a fitter when we started but him and his missus lived over a doctors surgery in a caretaker role, so we rarely saw him as he used to get doctors notes for months on end(allegedly!!) When redundo's came up they...

Cliff Johnson was the 'Doctor of Machinery' and he lived down the Icknield Road. Carried a briefcase. Me and Mick Mac. got a bottle of 'Mackeson' each off him, after Mick had put a socket in for him at his house. Most refreshing to lager drinkers......... Nice bloke though.

The roll change gang was Tony du Cille, chargehand, Joe Richardson and Tony Frisbee, I think.

Of course I remember you Dave. You lived near Wiggy Taylor from my old school, Central Grammar and arranged for me to buy an old Escort van off him. Mick Mac. would remember that old van which nearly died on the way to a John Otway concert in Oxford.

He did more than you. Who's davesd?

Hi carolina. I worked in the maintenance department at Barker and Allen on Dudley Road, Springhill from 1976 to 1989. I would have definately known your brother if he worked at that building. Would you like to pass my name on to him? (we used to do each others 'clocking' occasionally, so I'm not...
