I know people over at Rare, Psygnosis, etc. and never got a feeling they actually enjoyed what they did, let alone make a Web Site for ex-employees to talk abut the time they worked together. And even your boss is there too. Can't really believe it. Top stuff  TC |

That's one of the things that makes this site such a bizarre experience for us who worked there! We STILL have Lorraine and Gary keeping an eye on us all. I wouldn't have it any other way. It's hilarious!
So as well as being able to talk to a lot of the people I used to work with, the bosses are keeping check. It's surreal! ;D

You better believe it Junior... and stop skiving and do some work! I don't think I ever really got used to being anybody's boss, especially yours. I fondly remember you asking me in earnest one day how to make custard. You hadn't been living away from home for that long and you were sharing a flat with Senior in Burnage, and I reckon custard was the main staple of your diet. Oh yes apart from Pizzas... somewhere in the mists of time I can remember doing a runner with you from Pizza Hut on Cross Street because we were sitting near the door and couldn't get anyone to bring the bill. Talking of the Bill maybe I shouldn't have mentioned that.

Haha!! Well I'm glad it's a fond memory. The flat wasn't in Burnage though, it was in Green End in Stockport. I'd forgotten about the runner from Pizza Hut! I cacked myself. We were all standing there waiting to pay and nobody came to take our money, we waited and waited, so Butler (surprise, surprise) said 'Let's do a runner!' I was like 'No no, they'll be here in a bit'. I turned to look and see if anyone was coming and then heard a big bang. I turned round as you all disapeared out and someone must have caught thier foot on the door as they ran out. I was left standing there on my own so my 2 choices were to pay for you all or peg it out too. I took the latter! I've never run so fast in all my life.
IIRC it was a Pizza Hut down the side of Marks and Spencers!
We were naughty!

The service in that Pizza hut was awful and we stood for bloody ages waiting for them to come and take our money...it's not as if we weren't going to pay...they just never showed.
Serves them right!
And as for Junior's eating habits...he moved in with me for two whole days and all he ate was corn flour sauce.
Probably accounts for his six pack and iron hard physique.

It certainly did the business of blocking my sink.

TAnd as for Junior's eating habits...he moved in with me for two whole days and all he ate was corn flour sauce. I lived there for more than 2 days. I thought it was 2 weeks. Thats rubbish too, you don't eat cornflour sauce on its own, you eat it with fish fingers!! DUH! |
