Gerry still in charge.

i heard same both in edi and abz that mr dalyrymple now sole owner of alba so announcement correct today gerry alba????
--------------------------------------------------------------------

I just spoke to Gerry today.(Monday)

Morag and Gerry are still the major shareholders of ALBA and dont know where the roumors are coming from.
He seems to think another handling agent maybe behind the story.

He also confirmed that Virgin Atlantic Airlines have had the best summer ever at GLA with Alba handling them 100% ontime or early.

Thats 100% better than previous handling company last year did..not one on time..

Keep it up Alba!

P.S Where do Gerry and Mo fit into this now?? Tell the truth !!!!

If you use the service you pay for it.

Virgin & GSM pay the bills as they are the customers that use the services


I am away Back to business..

fish Oh Please !!!

Mr Alba !!

At least you are consistent as far as I can tell, You are fobbing off this forum just as much as i gather you are fobbing off your employees !! Yes GSM and Virgin pay the bills but as far as i am aware, most airlines do not pay their handling agents wages direct from their own accounts department !!!! FACT..... Alba GLA and ALBA EDI staff's wages will both be paid direct from collinton house (GSM) !! But hey, everything is fine... Alba continues to grow ( into what ? GSM Ground Handling ? )....... But relax folks because guess what ?????? An announcement ( a major one ) is immenent !!!!!! " AS YOU WOULD SAY YOURSELF GERRY.......BOLLOCKS MATE " !!!!!!!!!

To Clear the air.

This is the last time I will spell it out .Wingshot..

All Alba accounts have nothing to do with any other company .

They are paid by Alba Gound Handling Ltd direct from Paisley reg office
signed by Morag and Me into the bank by Alba nothing to do with any airline...This is fact and can be verified at our accountants and RBS in Paisley...


To all you rumour heads at the other handling companies
Alba will continue to grow..

You know who I mean.
Hows your business doing lard arse in Glasgow..hahaha

Is this why the post has became hot because your own company is struggling and I caught you spreading nasty rumours to the Airport authorities.

We all smell a rat and we know where it is..

Remember P... its nice to be important,but
It more important to be nice!


Gerry & Mo
away to relax and enjoy the future...

Fair Enuff

One question tho Gerry, why then have your staff at both bases been told that their salary will be paid through collinton house ? I know people at both GLA and EDI and this is what they have been told.

Davyday

Were all happy for you to be behind Gerry... However the fact IS that rumours ARE going round, AND they seem to be comming from ALBA sources, NOT 'deviance' as you so suggest

By the way, we are all still waiting for you to update us on the fate of Aviance... You claimed to know 'so much' about AVI not so long ago, when in fact you were just 'scare mongering'. Covers are being blown we think... The mask is slipping Davyday

Winter 08 will define the futures of many an airline (possibly handling agent too), not the comments of a former Aviance employee...
