We Shall Not be Moved
The RMT have called a two-day strike for today and tomorrow. There will be no trains to get me to work. You can imagine how gutted I was when I told my boss yesterday I'd have to work from home today ....
.... he's picking me up in an hour! :(
I don't know what the Railmen's demands are (except maybe they're fed up of having to drive over the desperate souls who throw themselves on the line with alarming regularity!) but these two days will hit the network pretty damn hard. Today is Ladies Day at Aintree and tomorrow is, of course, The Grand National
Much as it will inconvenience me, not to mention several thousand eager race fans, I hope they get what they're asking for. I wouldn't do their job for a gold clock. The abuse and aggravation those guys put up with would try the patience of a saint.
More power to your elbow guys!
