Default Re: TXE2 Exchanges

One of the chaps I worked under was a Taffy James, a rather mercurial guy. He was ok to work with in the mornings, but at lunch time he would visit the nearest pub and turned into a Mr. Hyde and whatever we did was wrong.
He had an Austin A35 van in which he used to sleep, in the exchange car park, wherever we were working at the time, as he then could save money on board and lodging.
I often wonder if his liver got the better of him.
Dennis Beckett joined Ericsons or Siemans (I forget which)and moved to South Africa to work on their equipment there.
Mike.
