HAHA, I liked that Stpetre, their were lots of Arabs workers at

English Steel and Firth Browns i knew, i had lots of laughs with them.

We had one that was a crane driver at Firth Browns and best driver i've

ever worked with, in his spare time he use to bring his mates for a game

of darts in the Crown Pub AT Grimesthorpe. :banana::banana:

Hello! I'm aware that I'm really digging this thread up! I am producing a documentary about the Firth Brown Medical Centre, and some of the stories on this thread are particularly interesting. I have only just joined the forum so that I can comment, and cannot private message any of you due to the 'five post' rule. If any of you would be interested in telling me more, please private message me.

There were quite a few Yemenis who worked at Rotherham Forge, Greasbro' St. They worked outside in the billet yard. Their leader was nicknamed Charlie, he also was a Court interpreter.
