First Job

The Village c1955
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I left school in June 1969 and worked at Albert Watter's farm in Dalton Pava . I delivered milk with one of his sons - sorry, can't remember his name. The delivery vehicle was a horse and cart. I can remember the horse's name though, she was called Dolly. We used to deliver milk to East Herringthorpe.

My husband also remembers Ab Watters and thinks his sons name was Melvin. He remembers him always saying "do you want a n'orange"
