Fortunately, when I was working the doors , I set myself a very high moral bar , and never ever took advantage of the opportunities . Honest . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd more likely meet up with a mate or two over Christmas, got a fishing session planned and another friend normally pops over New year's. Feck work lol 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Proper grafters , that you could have a laugh with , and trust with your life. These days I mainly work with a bunch of gobshites , that'll happily stab you in the back for f**k all but a pat on the head from a manager. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WataWalloper 4,402 Posted Saturday at 14:49 Report Share Posted Saturday at 14:49 Only few of us here that do any regular graft an then farmer who owns the lot and another is his son who about to take over, leaves me and another lad plus a mechanic an a fitter who gets invited out for crimbo, it’s generally a real good night with no expense spared by farmer, and even with it as good as that I still have to talk myself into going haha getting old is seriously unsociable haha 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 51,678 Posted Saturday at 17:14 Report Share Posted Saturday at 17:14 I’ve never been to a Christmas party as I have always loathed “collective fun” of any description !…….cant imagine anything I’d rather do less, same any pre arranged type gathering where everyone is “meant to” enjoy themselves and “celebrate” something or the other, I find myself hating everyone within minutes of my arrival for no apparent reason ! So, after that cheerful little thought, merry Christmas lads ! lol 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Halfhound 595 Posted Saturday at 18:25 Report Share Posted Saturday at 18:25 Christmas party season is a young man’s game I really enjoy the Christmas period hounds out most days loads of digging plenty of drink and loads of family time. Last Christmas party I attended I was there as more of a tag along but I remember about 12 young lads killing each other full of drink it warmed the heart to see it 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

eastcoast 4,715 Posted Saturday at 23:41 Report Share Posted Saturday at 23:41 The original Black Eyed Friday, don't know if it is a Geordie thing or country wide, I always made it home for Christmas? The day when all of the sites close , not always but often a Friday, when almost every man working in construction goes to Newcastle city centre and drinks. Some go home with black eyes, hence the term. It's a Wednesday this year but will still be "Black Eyed Friday"! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’m not sure because I’m not well travelled but I suspect Britain is the only country in the world where getting pissed and smashing the granny out of each other for fun is a thing ?
