You post that as though being in the secondhand business is somehow shameful? However, I don't think Irvine ever actually worked in the business. His father was the orginal, Philip opened Junkerama. Irvine worked for Eversure Textiles in the seventies when he was still a SC Councillor, before he scaled the dizzy heights to Parliament ... and I know this, how? I used to work there too. ps I don't think "sic" is shorthand for "is my spelling correct" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abigaler Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 Edward the youngest brother is the owner and has run Patnick's Junkerama for many years since his father Aaron retired .Phillip , a true gent and wit ,helps out .Sir Irvine is still alive and well but retired from active politics . abi.

I saw him at a charity dinner function only last month! So, alive and well it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
