[Margaret Pilkington]

I worked on a shuttle-less loom, it was called a sulzer machine...and used a rapier to draw the thread across the warp.

I was seconded to the research and development unit...I really enjoyed this work...then the place shut up shop and moved lock stock and barrel to South Africa...that was when I got a job at Moscow mill...no it was Enfield Mill not Moscow Mill.
They made the table cloths and table napkins for Buckingham Palace, but only the best weavers were allowed to work on these orders...and I definitely was not one of those.
I hated the Lancashire looms.
