I think Ray would have kittens

lets do it

sorry guys , i`m not going to be able to make this one as i have just had a major bust up with my work boss .

a cat got run over on friday near my job, and i left my mate on site while i took it to a vets for help.
this morning i was told i have to ask to leave the site , and that a cat screaming in pain was not a good reason to leave the site.

this caused me a great deal of anger , and , i told him and his ignorent wife exactly what i thought of them.
this has left me with out a job for the moment , but i have two others lined up , so i`m hopeful of getting work soon .

on the up side of things , i dont have to work for a selfish , arrogant , ignorent , heartless , bas*ard.
and yes , i would help an animal again , if it needed help , whatever the cost .

see you soon , grigoriev .

From what you have said before- he sounds like a complete tosser. You would be better off somewhere else. All the best- shame I missed Peak Rail- but from what I hear I & the illness I've just had, you would probably be at my funeral if I had turned up- as it would have been rude not to DRINK 1 2 3....(but it sounds like it would have been a nice way to go). Seeya soon.

Thats a real shame Colin. Hope it does work out for you and you end up with a half decent boss. Miss you over the weekend

Good luck with the jobs Colin. I hope the cat got through it all as well,after all your effort.

I think principles are very important and without standing buy them It would make a mockery of all we represent.

Sadly your boss needed serious reality check.

cheers guys , glad to say, phoned the vets today and the cat made it through ok and is back with its owner .

well worth the effort

Hi Colin, sorry you cannot make it at the weekend.

But you have done the right thing on several counts. Your boss sounds a complete arse plus you have stuck to your principles. As I have said to you before you will be much happier in a new job. Glad to hear that the cat made it though too.

Cheers, Ade.

Just to confirm the arrangements for this weekend.


There are no vehicle passes being issued. On arrival you will just need to state your unit.

We have an area booked for our display/camp. I think that this year we should be further down the hill towards the trade area and medieval village.

Cheers, Ade.

Colin

It's a shame you can't be with us this weekend but you did the right thing and stuck to your principles.

I'm confident you will get fixed up with another job soon.

A man of your calibre won't be idle or long I'm sure.

Good luck & see you soon.

I think we should have a bit of a friendly competition between the 2nd guards of who can swap their pilotka for the most interesting hat going
cheers Andy

Do you get your Pilotka back or do I need to buy a spare ? !

you usually get them back at 7 in the morning when everyone realises they have parade and the have a pot helmet on

Colin
You did the right thing - hope your next guvnor has an ounce of compassion in him. Good luck with the new job, and we'd better see you at Detling.

Nevski Section

Well done and good luck

Urrahh Colin
