Elizabeth Ferrer, Skinningrove Labs (1974)

This is Elizabeth (Betty) Ferrer in what is believed to be the new laboratories at Skinningrove Iron and Steel Works, after they moved out of the laboratories under the water tower on the cliff edge. Rodney Begg tells us: ”I first met Betty in 1963 when I joined Skinningrove Iron and Steel Works as a Junior Chemist and I think I joined the rest of the Junior Chemists in having a crush on her!  I don’t think I ever saw her in the laboratory as such; she had her own little section next door to Mr. E. F. (Effie) Brown’s office, where I believe she performed water analysis on oil samples.”

Festival Of Britain

I had forgotten what the festival of Britain was all about so I have checked with Google and  it ’Celebrated the Nation’s Recovery after the Second World War’.   Do you remember the pageant on Hird’s field in Loftus and were you there? I think this was Mavis Cuthbert under the disguise; some of those around her are:- Pat Vasey, Ann Dodsworth and Barbara Craggs, any other names welcomed.
