Bloody maniacs!
Them were't days, used to get up 2 hours before we went to bed, pay 't mill owner for the privilege of workin' and when we'd get home our dad would beat us to with in an inch of our lives.
Oh and 74 lived in a shoe box in, in lake!
Tell that to the youth of today, and they wont believe ya!
