Quote from: klondike on Today at 10:50:29 PMMy previous post is nothing to do with your question. It was a follow on to Macs about working for the gas board.No idea really. I imagine some council bloke wangled them as works of art and trousered a few bob when they were paid for. There's a number of rather odd artworks around the town that make no sense to me but I'm just a philistine.Bit odd if you ask me.

I started work as a clerk in the Corporation offices after a year at Commercial college when I was 16 in 1962. My pay was £16 a month. After I was married in 1967, I became a wages clerk, in a Remploy factory. We paid the employees weekly, in cash. I worked out the overtime payments, deducted tax and NI, then calculated notes and coinage needed, and went to the bank, on my own, to collect it. It was put in envelopes and I would pay out on the factory floor. I really liked that job, I only left to have my first child. No maternity leave back then.
