Tommy's nightmare job was the 05.00 Penmaenmawr job, i would hear his motorbike go pass my house at 4.00am on his way to work. When i got in for 5am he had already left the depot for St. Helens without me and i ended up sitting at Springs Branch all day. He once asked me to come in at 4am for a 5am start so he could get back early, i said enjoy the trip alone Tom i aint coming in an hour early and not being paid for it.
