Sad day!

I started as a service engineer for Lansing Bagnall in 1974 working out of the E London depot in Poplar. There was about eight of us covering south east London. We used to meet every morning in a cafe in Deptford! What a great crowd of blokes. I've got so many good memories.... then later on I worked out of Edenbridge. I then became a service instructor in 1979 at the Isleworth depot. From 1984 I spent a few years as the FTR rental controller at the Barking depot. I left Lansing Linde in 1989.

I have such fond memories of my times with Lansing Bagnall/Linde and all the great people I met along the way. My heart goes out to all those in Basingstoke who have lost their jobs.


All the best

Fact of the week
According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
