Well, fun next week.
Apparently Tuesday "Reclaim the Streets" are having another "anti-capitalism" demo so we have been advised not to wear a suit. Makes you a bit of a target apparently....
Then the tube will be out of action on Thursday - happy days...
Thanks
Gavin

Yeah great eh ??
makes you wonder why you work so hard only to have these idiots come alnog and complain because they don't have the intelligence or drive to do as well as the rest of the hard working tax paying populace..
We've been given a long list of do's/don'ts so we don't antagonise the little ****es..
Throw them in the river of London Bridge, lets see how they like being close to nature then...

It sucks doesn't it?
Can you imagine the Americans letting this lot walk down Wall Street, knowing there is going to be trouble ?? I don't think so..

PTMW - Have seen the Security Footage from LIFFE ( Was on contract there until March ).
The 'Essex Traders' certainly gave them something to contemplate going down the esculators ( sp ).
Some of the expressions on the demonstrators faces were magical.
The police should be armed with Water Cannons , Tear Gas and Plastic Bullets - Naw just use real bullets on 'em and save the tax payer a shed load of cash.

.....just do what I'm doing chaps.....going into the office in the morning - sticking some big boots on and jeans and going hippy bashing 
- if anyone wants me to give 'em an extra dig in the ribs from them then let me know - I find the best way to shut 'em up is to wade in with the fists first and when they drop to the floor stamp on their faces - and then leave the Met boys to cart 'em off and dust 'em a bit more!!! LOL

Anyone see that programme about the US oilfields? Zillllions of square miles of uninhabited land. - Some eco-friendly type was trying to say don't drill for oil there 'cos its a beauty spot - peaceful, quiet, never see another soul...
- If there's no-one there what's the problem with drilling for oil there?????

As counteraction to the May Day Reclaim the Streets Protests the following is proposed:
INTERNATIONAL CITY DAY OF ACTION
Next Friday will be the International City Day of Action. On this day,
We ask you all to don your finest pinstripe, apply your monocles, glue Mobile phone to ear and then head off down to Brighton to disrupt as many dredlocked soap dodging men and women with dogs on string as possible.
Plan of action:
* to picket henna tattoo stalls
* throw cheap pewter jewellry into the sea
* occupy the dole office and glue the doors shut
* throw soap and other cleansing materials at the men with dogs on, string
* dig up the road and line it with photocopies of huge salary slips
* hang the dogs on string with their string as a little ironic joke
* blockade the prominade with open top sports cars
* buy up all local supplies of scrumpy, special brew, snake bite and, black and roll ups - then throw them all in the sea
:-)

Anyone fancy a lunchtime pub meet.....2 pints, packets of crisps, baseball bat and an ambulance please
My opinion is the same as most other City workers. We get paid the money because we WORK, something the soap dodgers can't abide doing it appears.

Nothing like a potential riot to get a policeman out 
StuartH
Where have you been hiding for months?
Nice website BTW...
Bringing in PTMW! tomorrow (
) as having b/box fitted ( ) so if you can make sure they're kept away from the Limehouse Link & Wapping, I'd be much obliged

I've been around
As I said to Dave on the phone last week, everyone should work from home/local pub etc. It ain't going to be fun.

Stuart,
do you plan to take on deputys for the day.
I've got quite a few of the essex/city lot here that r well up 4 it!!
Seriously, weve been advised (by the MET apparently) to where suits so we do not get mistaken for demonstrators
What is the official MET stance??

What's a suit ???
Seriously though, it will be ratty jeans, big cat boots & an old jacket.
Kim, dont bother with a back pack, dont bother with any bag, less to loose.
PC Plod just need to photo the lot of them, ID them then stop their Giro's for 6 months, that will stop the dirty scumbags.
best bet is not to get involved, but if you do get caught up, take out the biggest ******* first, then the gobby ****e, even if it is female, the rest will probably back down then, if you get a kicking make sure that someone else get one as well.
Barge, having a ****e day at work, not looking forwards to tomorrow either
