johnbaz 363 Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 (edited) That's a nice view This used to be my view but I took redundancy late last year and don't have to go any more!! That's me with my back to the camera with the silver coloured helmet on, Had 42 years of the foundry, Was ready to pack in as I got a dose of (I think) covid early last year, I'm asthmatic and have copd but since then I can't even get up the stairs in one go!! Still have three years til my oap but everything's paid off so can take it easy now!! I was cleaning the downgates on a 70t ladle here, My mate must have been off as he used to do this and I used to open it when there were multiple openings.. I'm so happy to be an idle bugger now!!
