  8. Hi Brennan. If only you knew how your reply has made me feel. I used to visit this thread regulary hoping for one reply in recognition of us Scissor/surgical instrument workers, but getting a reply from Pauls relatives, Wife. Well, I did not in my wildest dreams expect to get your reply. Your Husband Paul, Wow so many memories that have not even begun to fade, He was absolutely the best Gaffer, Friend (although he was old enough to be my dad) Yes i can say friend. He got me a motor scooter wich was a non runner, he knew i was interested in mechanics. You know what? I still have the original log book for it . It came from sombody called Melvin Briggs oops spelt it wrong, its MELVYN BRIGGS.Just looked at the log book Hope for more replies to this thread ps_ could i ask where i can visit Pauls resting place. Because i did not find out he had passed away until i went to visit him at Hallis and Wragg. Only Brian was there and thats when i was told. So many memories.
  9. Hiya steelcityuk. Could i ask what your farthers name is, by pm if you prefer. The name Wragg, i knew Paul Wragg, he was the most caring understanding bloke i have ever known, The first gaffer at my first job, i remember it like it was yesterday, and all my time at Eschmanns, I wish there were more replies to this thread. Regaurds Glynn
  10. Just remembered Terry Leachs brother = Ken Leach.... Dave (singing man) = Dave Harper (i think)
  11. Hi I worked at Eschmanns (on and off) from approx 1972ish up untill redundant approx 1975ish. As i remember there were 4 of us apprentices who started at the same time. Derrick Longley (HI DERICK if you read this, keep in touch pal) Someone called Gavin, and Me, I know thats only 3 but i cant remember who the 4th was, thats if there was a 4th. Do you remember the beermats that Eschman gave us with there products printed on em, ive still got mine My first wage was approx 4 pound (cant find the friggin pound sign on my keyboard only a $ key) yes still got my first wage slip I trained as a Backstand glaser, I remember next to me was Terry Leach then Alan Gott, I thinkTerries brother also worked with us but cant recall just now his name. Remember names time.. OK First name has got to be the best gaffer/friend anyone could hope for ( I remember my first day as if it were yesterday. First training / working day on the VIOTTO scissor blade grinding machine. My first Trainer/Gaffer/Boss was Paul Wragg RIP Paul . He was a great guy, many memories of Paul, i could be here all night but will save for onother post. Paul started a bussines with Brian Hallas, Hallas and Wragg. I worked for them too wonder where Brian is today. Regaurding the quote from above , I think Dave Wragg maybe Paul Wragg also Walt maybe Walt Wilson I lived on the same maissonette as Walt at Foxhill. I also remember another backstand glaser in our area (wich was at the side of the boxed in stairs wich went to the lower floor) his name was Dave, i think he was a singer in clubs, and every morning he came in and changed into his work trousers (wich he left at work) before he started work.. Well every time the ladies would run down and try to catch him with no trousers... but he was faster than them... Untill one day he tried to get em on quiker than the ladies could catch him,,,, It wasnt my idea to sew your work trouser bottems up honest ))))) EHH THE GOOD OLD DAYS Who cannot remember ADA in the canteen, she used to get our orders for our sandwiches or dipping cakes and go across the road to the steelworks canteen for us all Bless her. I also remember a guy who worked the rumbelers vibrating machine wich smoothed the blades etc) cant remember his name, wore glasses. Someone who loaned me loads of Bluebeat records cant remember his name?
