you're welcome GB, I Loved working at Metal Box, good conditions, canteen and welfare facilities were second to none, I remember sackings left right and centre as they struggled with the thatcher reign of less pay more work, longer hours and the union battles we had, It was a good place to work up to 1981 when it became a dog eat dog, Our work there fell away rapid in 1981 when i was made redundant along with about 10 more and soon after more and more went,
good times never last long and I enjoyed my time there,
We might even have spoke as i often did work in the DWI factory , can lines, conveyor belts, renewals and adjustments, we wore green boiler suits usually with a rolled up Daily mirror in the 'rule' pocket or maybe a Sun newspaper , We were notorious for coming late, going early and having long breaks,
