hi mate shit news for you but youll here loads of rumours in that place most of it crap im affraid i worked in corus in newport for more than 10 years and glad i got out around 4 years ago to be honest still got loads of really good friends there and even my dad is still there going through what you are now. but im really sorry to say this but the 400 million to put the land back right is utter bollocks as they demolished our coke ovens when i was there around 6 years ago and that land was supposed to cost a fortune to put right but its been done and the cost was only around a quarter of that even less to be quite frank as it cost around 100 million to completely level our coke ovens, sinter plant,2 blast funaces and our concast and return the land to what they deemed fit i.e houses and a new school has been earmarked for that land now! not that i believe its clean land again i just think they paid somebody a big enough backhander to declare the land safe again. Sorry to be so depressive mate id just prefer the truth instead of all the bull that goes round im affraid thats why i guess i had enough and left,and lucky now for me that i did although do really miss the crack that we had there,ive got a better job now although i dont think ill ever have a job with the mates and fun that i had there and that is priceless memories now im afraid and i dont think il ever find it again now that there shutting all the steel works down just like they did the mines BASTARD GOVERMENT!
