Paper rounds are always an early start Chef. Just finished mine.

I'll have you know I used to do the paper-rounds, and the collections in Edlington. Never got robbed once in all the years. And they tried many times. So no messing right.

(Alternatively the escape and evasion tactics I self taught are the reason I am so good on an MTB)

Good money too. Paid for gliding and later tug lessons.

When I packed it in as I was leaving the area to go to college the chap running the shop cried.

I thought he was a milkman?

Do they still have milkmen in the UK?

Can't use the word milkman, it's sexist

Milk (and other dairy products) delivery operatives

102 tons of coal in less than 6 hours ???? Must be that horse in Animal Farm. Cue for a song.

Most Taylorism is bulltulip. Just read his books. My favourite is the 'pigs' on the loading dock of the Bethlehem Steel Works. It's just not physically possible to get that many up there.

So I would suggest this 102 tons thing is of a similar nature.

An old man comes across a long queue. He asks the man at the back "What are they giving out?"
"A kick in the balls."
"To everybody?" asks the old man, "or just to Stakhanovites?"

For the lesser educated types (yes I mean you MF): Stakhanovite movement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You're all gonna die. The only question is how you check out. Do you want it on your feet? Or on your ******' knees... begging? I ain't much for begging! Nobody ever gave me nothing! So I say *f\/ck* that thing! Let's fight it!

I heard you weren't good at the begging thing. 10 years in a Siberian salt mine for stealing that potato! Was it worth it?

Your hands scarred, down to the bone by the constant digging. The 'Hey ho, hey Ho, it's off to work we go' songs and Cosack dancing. Your knarled hands trying, trying to prise the lid off those Heinz beans. Curse this damn tin opener. Sniffing the side, fighting like dirty dogs over the last tin. Sharing 10 to a room. "No Mrs Murphy, theres' nobody in my bedsit, no, no-one here'! Dreaming, one day of escape. When that wall comes down. When the Communists give up, I'll escape. To the West. The West!!! The Land of the Free! Of Democracy! Squirrels running free, the wind in the hair. Grays, Reds!(not many of them now). I'll feed them, they'll be my friends. I'll show them. I'll show them all. One Day!! ONE DAY! GOOGLE! YOU WILL BE MINE! YOU WILL BE MINE!!!!
