The owners will have made a well-earned profit from it. Unfortunately we may now lose those MAN names which have been so long a part of Hull's maritime heritage.

Had a look at the profile of the new outfit to determine how many vacancies they have, not that I am looking for a job at my age just interested in the positioning of them, seems to me they want Snake Charmers who understand the “Python”the Engineers need to be “Minimaal Gelding” which seems to be a bit much. :o
He/ She thing these days is a bit confusing we used to have Actresses now they are all Actors.

Correction = should read “Minimaal Geldig.
