DaveJC Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 When I commenced work on Fargate in 1962 our window cleaner was the legendary Harry Dukes. Harry was nearing the end of his lifetime of self employment, only to be interrupted by army service in WW2. He smoked like a trooper and was rarely seen without a huge smile on his face whilst joking with his customers, he will be long dead but they say that you only actually die when there is nobody left alive who remembers you, nice one Harry. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bare in mind, my fear of heights made me celebrate when stacked heels went out of fashion. Sorry about the humour by the way, it’s just my thing. 🤭 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
