A new freight station has opened, apparently

The local news is reporting from a platform. Everyone is wearing High Viz and helmets.

WHY? It's a TRAIN!!!

As I recall, that was the basis of a 1960's "Rastus" joke.

New Elf n Safety person at the Canal people has sent instruction on "keeping safe" to all staff and volunteers

This is "duty of care" arse covering at its finest   ::)

If we are confronted by an irate/pissed/aggressive boater/passer by and threatened with physical violence the instruction is to say:

The Canal and River Trust does not expect its staff to tolerate violence or abuse. As you are being violent/abusive* I am now removing myself from this situation and intend to report you to my line manager."

*delete as appropriate

I must try that the next time I am on the wrong end of a fist/boathook/boot ::)

Effin ridiculous

What would it cost them to install a camera and a sign you could point to saying 'you are on camera, we prosecute all intimidation of our staff' ?
Well, whatever, nevermind
