[QUOTE="Devil's advocate, post: 9277566, member: 1504"] Grandad left school in 1916 & was 12, mostly looking after the animals & grooming horses, polishing the draught horse tack. In the late 1920's newly married & just took on the tenancy of a 65 acre farm but very short of money. A new road was been built & they wanted Men with a heavy horse & a ton cart to move material around. Grandad went with his horse he was full time but he was working with the unemployed on a gov work programme one week in three. Grandad said the men were in tears they had no gloves & had blistered hands, poor boots with foot issues & begging to work for just enougth to feed their famlies [/QUOTE]
