I was born in one of those caravans along with my 6 brothers and sisters...
....no school of course...just picking apples and destoning reclaimed moorland, with the odd tattie picking thown in to relieve the boredom...it was good fun looking back through rose tinted glasses...!!!
I did not learn to read and write 'til I was 15 ..mind you I started my first business by the age of 17 and had 19 men working for me by the age of 19...so when I hear that today you need 742 'A' levels to stack shelves in Tesco I just despair...!!!
