hello I served my time as an apprentice bricklayer at Wellerman Bros. and remember all the guys mentioned. My dad worked as a "ganger" for them and it was he who got me a job with the company to start three days after I had left school in July 1962 George Crowder was contracts manager at Wellermans when I first started work there. The last info I had of Ken Watson was that he was still in Kimberworth and working as a lay preacher? don't know how true this is. These quotes have conjured up many many good memories :)

I remember your dad he was a Pitsmoor lad the same as I was :)

I am an Australian now but back in 1957 I was a young secretary who worked for Mr Hedley who was the Company Secretary,  I remember there were two Mr Wilson’s one was the office manager and the other was a surveyor.  Mr Caldwell was the payroll manager and his assistant was a friend called Margaret Mullarky.  At that time we used to tender for railway bridge building jobs.
