malc - you are right. i am expecting some grief; to be honest though i can take a good hiding and get back to work the next day. donny is a small town and i'll tell my customers what has gone on. this has been brewing for 2 years, since i got some work in the shopping centre. in other parts of the country competition is intense but doncaster has been dominated by this firm for 40 years. they are not villains or gangsters so i'll not get stabbed up; they were rugby men so know some hard lads and i'll get a beating. i'm not that arsed though. i've done nothing wrong and they are whinging and slagging me off. i'll sort something out in the next month or 2 that'll really put the cat among the pidgeons.
