Anyway........ I've been very limited in my employment compared to many here. Went straight from school into my fathers engineering business and 31 years later, I'm still at it.
The business has changed dramatically over the years though, traditional customer bases have all but evaporated, now we mainly do structural steel and mv parts and repairs. Specialising in tanks, we usually have one or two in at any one time with parts for other stuff going through too.
