    I think it should be a banana-able offence.

      I expect they will just get a squaddie in to replace you.

        Will not replace me mate , make no mistake. I am surprised they are being touted to drive lorries, I am surprised they are being allowed to do anything other than clean windows with their tongues.

              The tabloids are giving the strikers a hard time in today's papers. Hard but fair.

                For example? Quick scan of the headlines on clientco's newstand seemed to be PANIC BUY NOW in huge letters followed by "drivers urged not to panic" in tiny ones at the end. Not much said about the strikers on a casual glance.

                    I topped my tank up as well today. [I'm a twunt, but one with a full tank of fuel]
