Scaffolding In The 1980s Was A Glorious Time, I Was Not Long Married, And Taking Home £100 Per Week. Till I Got A Start At Torness For Mcalpine My Wages Went Through The Roof It Was Brilliant, Great Job With Great Men Some Of Whom Im Stiil In Contact With. Never Very Keen On Bananarama Though I Was More Into Carmel Mcourt From Manchester A Wee Woman With A Fabulous Voice (Forget Duffy And Adele This Dame Was The Real Deal)
