I remember Jimmy, I worked in the shed for ronnie cassidy, canny bloke. Remember the store man being called Boss Hog. Then got sent on the boat (HMS Chatham) worked for a right tw@t called Watson, he hated apprentices. Our G.F. was Bob Lackenby he hated everyone, never seen much of them as I was usually at the bog reading my paper.
