  @hrussell: Well I was a Grain-trailer boy at 15 on a farm for the summer, but not counting, that I joined Vauxhalls at age 17 as a student-apprentice and began training as an engineer in ernest then. I have been in work ever since and this is one of the important aspects of being an engineer. Nothing moves on earth without engineers, except for the tides. Regards Robin
