His first job was at the Nori brickworks, where a lifelong friend of mine taught him how to turn the ginny wagons that ran under Whinny Hill from the now known as Whinney Hill quarry.
The aforsaid friend always remarks that his main claim to fame was instructing the millionaire half of Jon and Vangelis how to work in a big hole in the ground.
Your's as ever Taddy.
