At the last power station I was at, there was a Sports & Social Club which included a football team made up from members of all departments. The station also boasted a full size pitch in the extensive grounds. It was at least the size of 2 jumbo jets but that's not important right now......
Most weekends, the team played matches against visiting teams from other stations and other local teams. The problem was, at the end of each match, all the players used the locker rooms and bathing facilities used by all staff. To get to these facilities they had to use the staff entrance and walk up a very long corridor, but brought in all the mess off their football boots. Complaints were made and so a notice was put up at the entrance - "FOOTBALL BOOTS MUST BE CARRIED IN THIS CORRIDOR".
On arriving late for his shift, one of our crew's excuse was - "I was looking for a pair of football boots to carry down the corridor"!
