At Evans I was responsible for production planning for the Tablets, Powders and Suppositories Department. In the Great Escape they had the Kooler King - me I had to be the Suppository King
billy's took the knock on a staybe tonight eh?, he'll be cheddered this is stickied but he's got his head down.
The Suppository planning was dead easy. It was the only job in which you could get legally high when we produced amphetamines.
Seeing as this is the 50th anniversary of JFK's asassination, the suppository you worked in wasn't books on the 5th floor in downtown Dallas was it?
I miss all the fun yeah? You bin spyin on me again Mullet Boy? I was thinking about this thread during the match today because I heard pretty much every phrase on the list in the space of two hours
I worked at Hough Green for a year a couple of decades back. Weird place, as I remember; almost like Belfast or Glasgow in that whole streets (or even sides of streets) seemed to be divided between Wools and Scousers. As I remember, generally east of the station was Wool, and west was Scouse. Was like West Side Story on Saturday nights outside the Hammer and Pincers.
That map's not quite right - Prescot not wool?? I'd say 'sound' stops at Huyton. We got our cakes from Cousins, sometimes Wallers. Who remembers Blacklers with those overhead tube things? They used to put the money in a capsule type thing and you'd have to wait for it to come back with your receipt and change. Student Rag Week ox roast.
They had them payment tubes in the army and navy stores as well jb, there was a story in the echo in the 70's about lads who worked in there added a special offshoot tube to an empty room in the building and they got grands out of the venture before getting caught.
Freeman's was a decent shop and it wouldn't have been out of place in town, its a Taskers DIY store now.
