Myself and most of my friends had some kind of job at 15. What’s your point?

I was doing 12 hours a day down the pit when I was still an embryo.

shame it was a good plan

Back in the early 70s the Ted Heath Govt...thinking it would never happen...got stung with that sort of deal - For all workers, iirc.
At one stage I was getting a pay rise a month.
I got in quick at the Building Soc. (The Burnley, long defunct - Mr Google tells me it became part of the Nat Provincial)
With 4 payslips and wangled an early form of Mortgage guarantee just before they revised their criteria?

Ted Heath the workers friend - who knew?

None at all just passing time sharing lifetime stories, chill out and stop being an aggressive little gimp.

Okay mate ???

I’ve literally never been out of work, I’m never off sick, I do overtime and I’m still gonna be working until I’m 70, but well done you for working hard.

So proud of you now be quiet and let the adults talk..

*holds hands up
In hindsight, being born on or a couple of years around that sweet spot of 1950 was the best start I could ever want.
...still had to use what natural talent I had  And weather a shedloads of 'Events'...most of which neither I, nor the various Govts. of the day, had no real control over.
