Always sad to see Warships being "Returned to Produce" bearing in mind some of their War Records :cry: but Swords to Ploughshares was the order of the day with BISCO being the protagonist. Interesting picture for instead of 'Spot the Ball' Competition but 'Spot the Tripping Hazards' Competition, I would suggest that you use a toilet roll to mark your entries on!
Yes I know things were different then, Safety Manager? never heard of him :roll:
