from 1969 to 1992 I was employed as a floorlayer in and out of work according to the economy etc from 92 until September this year I owned my own flooring firm having to close it when having a heart attack.my last wage back in 92 was £22k whilst running my own firm I seldom earned that amount but did have a few perks.
