I left school when I was 14 and went to a Commercial College to learn shorthand and typing, starting work on my 15th birthday at an Estate Agent. Unfortunately they were cheating their clients wholesale and ended-up in court. I had to attend court to identify signatures on various documents.
Strangely, one of the detectives who came to the house to interview me turned out to be Nanny's Godson!
The whole Estate Agent's family ended-up in jail, but I was particularly sorry for the husband of the Matriarch of the family. He had been a Naval Commander and met this woman at a party. He swore he must have been blind drunk when he proposed to her!
