I met my Mrs at Charnock Richard when I was hitching down from Newcastle years ago

Used to get stuck there all the time hitching down from Newcastle back in the day...

Well, that's how Admin pays us...
Cojak gets Zubrowka by the tanker, I get cases of Babylonstoren Babel and NAT gets wine gums.

I believe admin pays you per ban so come on, pull the trigger and earn some dollah!

[WTFH]

He did give a caveat... guess this tells us they are pretty much constantly pished.

Think yourself lucky you could be the PM who had a bit of cake he was offered on his birthday on his way between meetings and has been pilloried ever since by upstanding people such as that paragon of truthfulness Alastair Campbell and BBC journalists , Sue Gray and the Police

FTFY.


Heyho. Back to work.

They do? Are you sure about that

Hazzah to the moderation team!

Sounds like you might have met Bolshie then.

What sort of a cheapskate company sends their employees to the services for a staff jolly?

I met my Mrs at Charnock Richard when I was hitching down from Newcastle years ago so my quickly thought up handle is a tribute to that event.

As for the image, I didn't find a decent one of CR so I chose Forton instead.

Simples.

So you went back to the tents!?

Last time I attended one of these thing was back in the permie days and Andersons treated us all to a 3 day jolly at Charnock Richard. The room next door to mine had a particularly noisey bed all through the friggin night so at least two team members certainly 'bonded.'

[WTFH]

You found a "decent" one of Forton from their Wikipeida page, but you didn't find a "decent' one on the CR wikipedia page which is linked from the same page as you got the image from?

Never mind that, he calls himself "Guy" in his username, and "Nigel" in his signature.
Maybe he's this man...

Yesterday I posted an innocuous thread in the professional forums and received a number of replies accusing me of being another individual. I subsequently received a ban.

I find this absolutely astounding and I really have to say the moderation on this site is woeful.

You think you can just ban a new poster on such hearsay without allowing the poster to defend himself? This is not a good look for your site among the professional contractor community. I'm active on a number of other forums, including IPSE, and I'll be giving you a right panning over there too unless this situation is resolved.
