For SRG:

For those arriving on a hot July morning knowing full well what lies ahead:

Keep up the good work y'awl

Gee, I was thinking of something along the line of management looking like Baldrick, and stating I have a cunning plan that cannot fail <G>..

On a positive note: just think of it as one year nearer to its retirement.

Could well be sinking/moving/settling.
Lots of the large glass roof panels don't all shatter due to a "maufacturing flaw".
Very soon some may be able to go to work by boat up the River Hamble.
Some, of course, have already left the sinking ship!

I think " Sledgehammer " by Peter Gabriel would be ideal.

Definitely not " Radar Love " by Golden Earring!

No-one seems to have commented on the official NATS statement regarding the 12 month anniversary of NERC going truly online.

Don't wish to speak out of turn but having read all the previous threads curious to hear from those on the shop-floor as it were.

Not over glossy in my opinion but a tad too much upbeat especially wrt the many issues you people have worked through and presumably are still working through.
