Did a stint, (Two months ) at Pwehelli, circa 1965, working in the Kitchens ( Gloscester ) I think it was, I was 16, they sent us from catering college, work experience they would call it these days, the food was atrocious, for some unknown reason the girls in the kitchen got around with no knickers on, I shared a chalet with four other blokes, the toilet was way down the other end so they all peed in the sink, ( well when in Rome ). Mind you I found out why they did'nt have any pants on, they were like rabbits, you could'nt go anywhere, store rooms, corners, veg prep room staff room, for a 16 year old in those days was a real eye opener, just as well there was no aids around in those days. now that Ive started this , all the memories are flooding back.
