| No: 49 | | From: Dennis P Foden | Posted: 19-6-2012 |
 | | Dennis Foden has hit the button |
| | Dennis Foden has finally hit the button after 41 years with BT.
April 19th 1971 i set out at telephone house as a TTA
i came out of my time on E32 exchange construction staff 1974.
i later moved to trunk exchange in dalton and then pioneer on 3rd floor dial house from 1976 till 1990.
on closure of the exchange i have spent time on private wires;line ups job control and maintenance 1990-2002
on leaving private wires i then moved to broadband,and finally ispco till the present day.
over the years i have made many friends and met many colleagues who i will sorely miss.
i am not sure that i will miss the bureaucracy and stats though.
although my finishing date is 29th June 2012 as i hav outstanding leave today 19/06/2012 is my last day.
i will however endeavour to return Friday 29/06/2012 for a buffet lunch with my fellow escapees on the 5th floor Dial House,
and then off to The Moon Under The Water on Deansgate for a few scoops.
my fellow escapees will be:
Robert Scholes,Phil Barnett,Gill Berry,Martin Rochford and Noel Vazquez.
I hope to see you all soon
and anyone else that knows us

Hi Dennis. I hope you are well. I also stated in 1971, at Telephone House on Portland Streetno 55. We went on different journeys through Post Office Telephones and later BT. I have forgotten how or when we met it might have been Openshaw Tech.. But you moved to Failsworth, where i had lived for some years. I introduced you to my mate's. Some of whom I'm sure you will remember. I think you also Camerton my wedding in Cornwall.And I recall you were attracted to my cousin Christine.you went to Seattle to see her.
Some of our old mates have passed on. Not me! And I hope not you.
Contact me if you like.
