I left Slingers shop to work in the Mill and get a better wage.......but it was really hard work....I reckon I earned every penny of it....and the 6 til 2 shift nearly put my lights out....especially when I moved to Clayton and had to walk to Accrington every morning to get the 5.30 bus to Rawtenstall.
