Could mean they’re a some sort of crew behind the front: catering, stores, transport, training or somesuch.They're a disparate bunch though and surprisingly older guys.

IIRC a lot of it is online and free access. But if the paper was bombed long before digitisation, then that could be a dead end.

Re: utterly random picture thread.
Is that Red Lion as good as the one in Doncaster?
It's a 'spoons now, but used to belong to one of the other chains.
I found a feedback form on a table someone had started to fill in. First box, name of the pub... The Red Loin.
I thought it summed up the pub and Doncaster in general perfectly.

Re: utterly random picture thread.
Just a skyshot from this week when I got to work. And yeah it did piss down later on in the day.
I was inside so not an issue and even though the building isn't heated we keep warm by actually doing work
