[QUOTE="Wood field, post: 9226421, member: 163366"] I am similar, turned up never revised, we went a farming family, I got offered an apprenticeship as a mechanical engineering fitter and turner , my dad said take it ! In his day fitters and sparks were called preferred trades and on better money than the other shipyard trades . He meant well but I just wanted to farm . Lads on let’s say menial jobs in dairies and food production factories used to say to me “ fekin hell you’ve done alsorts of stuff “ while to me it was just another job in a different place , I have travelled a bit and done some really interesting jobs from Onshore Gas and Nuclear to Dairy and processing, but I like it here on our farm [/QUOTE]
