Dezzy worked in a local ATS centre as the "boy" left and went to work for a local tyre firm, got laid off form there through lack of business. Done various things to survive here and there but we'll leave that to a pi55y evening at a meet.

Got an apprenticeship as a Shipwright in a Shipbuilders, served my time and am a fully indentured Shipwright and was building ships of various types from pontoons for floating bus stops on the Themes to Super Yachats. I then got an opportunity to go into the design office and learn a very specific 3D design software tool. I took this for a couple of reasons 1, shipbuilding is very hard work and 2, shipbuilders don't seem to live very long.

I'm now a director of my own company offering design engineering and Liasion to companies that might need it. Currently building Aircraft Carriers.

Any other shipbuilders in da ouse?
