Hi bob
I meant to say Zura, that I always wanted to be a carpenter. When I was in high school the boys did woodwork and the girls did needlework.
On leaving school women weren't offered apprenticeships in carpentry, another bummer. Gawd, does this mean I have to be an air hostess, secretary? Maybe I could become a model?
Became a printer for a while which was a completely male dominated industry and didn't get much support from the blokes. Really sexist.
Carpentry would have been great. Alas.
