Jobs for the ladies

Mum in flyspray advert in the 1960s!

Here is my Mother (standing) in her first job as a secretary in the 1960s.
She's modeling fly spray for a magazine advert.
(Perhaps they put it on their hair too!)

  2. I love it! Feeling a bit icky at the thought of what horrible chemicals are in that spray! Makes me thing of a Pam Ayres poem called 'My Mother Had a flit gun' x
