Davy United - What is the status of it?

 

As most of the posts are years old I thought I would ask if anyone as any up to dade information, I have been told they are recruiting as they move from 1 to 2 shifts, is this true.

 

If so what kind of jobs are they and what are the conditions like, not the factory, the blokes and management set-up.

 

Before someone says it yes I could try their web site but inside information is always better, cheers in advance for any comments, good or bad.

Hi No71, sorry I have not replied before as my wife and I were visiting our son in Spain at the time of your posting and I didn't pick it up.

 

I didn't know Ralph Ferrett as I left Davys round about 1964, possibly before he came down into the pattern shop from the training school.

Regards sigma

Hi Finchy s,

 

Thanks for that! I'd seen the post regarding Jim and knew I knew the name... I can picture him now you mentioned the Square four.

 

Don't know what you are doing in Eire but hope you are well.

Hi finchy s,

 

Sorry i dont know your mate at Hillstown, even though i drive past that part of the world on my way to work.

 

On a different note, there is a chap called Hobson who writes features in Amateur Photographer magazine. Do you know if it is Davy Roll Hobbo? The face shown in the mag certainly resembles him.
