I then left to join the Daily Mail just as he started and in about his second week the paper went on a year long strike. When I saw him next he looked like an extra from Planet of the Apes! But he's a hell of a good journalist and now (probably after that early introduction) a great union man. I wish him well.George Dearsleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00304948035932082441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917932169846040654.post-39015185914133491582009-10-15T15:48:18.353+01:002009-10-15T15:48:18.353+01:00Oh yes.
