TLDR posts score zero.....sorry.....tongue outlaugh
Drat!
Perhaps I should have split it into 10 separate posts?

Perhaps that's why I am 14,503 posts behind you, Peri, withe a scant 13 months to catch up.

So I've just got to average 1116 posts per month? Or just over 37 per day?

Nah.

Long day at work, 12 hours of sticking people in a big magnet is surprisingly hard work. If we stick people to the big magnet it means they didnt empty their pockets wink
GOG, do you find much contraband? wink
I'v heard about those shady characters that attempt to smuggle clamps or scalpels or suchlike out of the hospital by concealing them in their tummies or chest cavitis. ....

Never found anything like that, have had people take some odd things out of their pockets, the worst was probably the fking huge knife this guy pulled out of his waistband!!!

I've told Bobbers that he really shouldn't be carrying that sort of stuff to the hospital.
I know it's a kind gesture, but the surgeons have their own.

This was when I was working in the knife crime capital of the uk (or it was at the time) Nottingham.

I live in Yorkshire so it has to be haddock and chips with your choice of either mushy peas or curry sauce.

Mind you I was once working in Hexham and we went to the chippy for Dinner and I asked for a fish butty (a perfectly reasonable thing to ask for in west yorks) and the lass behind the counter looked as though I had suggested she performed a sex act with a small animal, the shock and horror on her face was amazing.

Working on the factory expansion of Trebor Basset in Sheffield years ago, the contractors were allowed to use the company canteen. You would think a bunch of contractors living away from home for a year could indulge themselves but my Christ we were nowhere compared to some of the folk up there working on the sweet lines. In addition to the subsidised canteen before work, morning tea break, lunch, afternoon tea break and before going home, the rules had just been relaxed on workers eating sweets from the line. (Banning the eating of sweets from the line hadn't worked so the management decided to try allowing workers to eat all the sweets they wanted in the hope they'd get sick of them and stop.) I was queueing up for a cuppa one afternoon and couldn't help overhearing two women in the queue behind me.
"I think I'll have a chip butty."
"Ooh, that sounds nice. I think I'll have one, too."
"You can't beat a chip butty in the afternoon."
"No, you really can't."
So, in addition to eating subsidised grub for breakfast, lunch and dinner if they wanted and all the sweets they could eat while working, they were just about to have a chip butty each with their afternoon tea.

When I had the opportunity I glanced at them. I swear these two women were spherical. They were so fat. So fat. It put me off me off my tea.
