A Legal Secretary - Half a Century Ago

In 1957, I left school at the age of 16 after achieving excellent results in the RSA examinations in Typewriting, Shorthand and Commerce. I was also awarded a prize for the best shorthand student of the year. I dreamt of being on stage or a TV scriptwriter (yes, we had TV in 1957!) - anything in show business - but in those days these kind of jobs were virtually impossible to get into.

I have worked in offices for quite a number of years, starting in the 1960's! I have seen quite a number of changes over the years, particularly with machinery.... now this will really show my age!
