“I had a pin money job working for Hime and Addison at the Free trade hall,Sunday night concerts. I worked with my friends Joan Prince and Sylvia and Gloria Davies. Joan and I worked in the balcony,Sylvia and Gloria were downstairs. We were selling programmes and showing people to their seats. Once the interval finished we were free to watch the show and got paid for the privilege. It was mainly Jazz groups e.g Acker Bilk,etc but also Shirley Bassey. Happy days!”
