I did LOL :

I didn?t say anything ? but I thought that this might be some sort of terrorist attack because I had heard that suicide bombers prayed before attacks.?

Is that harsh to LOL

funny story

[computedshorty]

Many years ago I worked for a Mail Order company HQGS at 151 Belenden Road Peckham. It had many buildings behind the shops each side, there was a staff of 31 who packed the seasonal items Summer it was tents, Winter Corrugated Plastic sheeting, and general Mail Order things.

There were people from most countries working there, some would stop work and go into the open yard face East and pray, they were never prevented to do this.

Many of the employees would come to work on their Tribal Day dressed in their colourful flowing robes, these did interfere with the work that they could not carry out being dressed like it, these days would be prevented as a Health Hazard.

The company closed all about thirty, of the warehouses to move to Dolcis shoe factory in Great Dover Street at the Borough.

Some employees went with them, but as the pay was not very good, and they lived local they opted not to go. I gave it a day but did not like being confined to a closed warehouse and no smokeing. So I left.

Some Shops remained for a few years, in Coldharbour Lane, High Holborn, Oxford Street, Croydon, Romford.

I wonder if there is anyone about who worked there?
