    Just heard hubby might be going on strike next week and going up to Lindsay Oil to picket... He was going to be working there but got sent to Aldermaston instead, so a lot of his work mates are there and already on strike because of this Italian/Portuguese workers thing... bit worrying... but am glad in a way, our guys are finding it hard enough to get work now (as some of you already know with your own hubbys being out of work...) and it takes someone to make a stand doesn't it... we'll see... :confused:
