So What Does Your Father Do

Neville

What Does Your Father Do

 

Neither the Butchers or the Bakers

were exactly candlestick makers ..

 

But the Smith’s, Parkers and Pettitt’s

 

were either Boat-builders, cooks, nurses

or medics, so what does your father do ..

      My father was a radio boffin who owned a few shops but we never saw much of him - - my Mum worked with deciphering numbers and shone in her field of (pre-computer) Comptometer programming- - -never saw much of her either so brother and I were Grandma reared - -- - oooh hope I haven't gone way off your question - -- memories come flooding at this time of year ................x.

          Good question, Nev. Ofttimes it more than determines your own path way in life (although there can be a refusal admit to that). And of course, there are exceptions.......
