when the grumpiest bits of grumpy fleet were in self enforced exile at Bedfont.
Proudest moment of my life - standing next to a fellow crew member on a picket line, terminally ill with cancer who had rung in fit just so she could be counted as having been on strike. She said she'd stood up to cancer so Walsh would be a pushover! Sadly no longer with us but certainly wasn't grumpy, far from it.
The atmosphere at Bedfont was amazing, full of the nicest and funnily enough most pro BA crew members - the ones who are a delight to fly with. All present had a spine and were determined not to be a soft target for the bully boys.
Please note IB we stood firm and gained a contractual guarantee on our T&C's for the rest of our career, which was more than what was put on the table at the beginning of the dispute. Correct no promotion, as some have said, but I'm more than happy to see my years out as junior crew on my T&C's.
Stick together and good luck!
