Howard and Bulloughs ( A. K. A Platts Saco Lowell) was a great place to work. Started work after leaving school at 15, apprenticed as a toolmaker for five years, and worked in the tool room. At that time two pounds per hour, with overtime, also worked on the company fire brigade on weekends. For a 21 year old guy to earn 100 pounds per week it was great work. The only problem was a foreman call Alex, he made my life hell for a period. Now I see it's a hotel complex, how life changes !!!!!.
