Yeah not really an option for us.. my Dad worked in a power station.
I got dragged along to the meat works that my dad worked at. That place fucking stinks.
Really! We were allowed in at weekends... but my Dad did literally work in the turbine area. So big OSH no no, even in the 80s.
Yeh he worked in an office upstairs but you still had to walk through the factory floor bit to get to the lift. There were lanes painted on the ground that you had to walk along, I had my own pair of overalls and these giant white gumboots that I had to wear in that bit.
Aaawwww - you MUST have a photo of THAT somewhere. You must have looked so cute.
Clearly I still am a total cutie.
