My father was a Herdman on farms. Mum worked as a. Clickie on buses in Northampton. I know that she loved doing this job. During the war she was in the Land Army near Welford where of course, the hours were long. Dad was in the Parachute Regiment and was part of the D-day Landing. He was shot in the face and lost an eye. He then had to have a glass eye fitted.
