FGW needs to recruit more staff urgently and they need to look at whether they can redeploy staff in other areas." "Normally we get the problems on a Friday and Saturday, because crews are less willing to work at the weekends as they value their time off." I am meeting Keith next Monday (26/11/2007) , so if you have any questions for him , let me know.
