Elf Incorporated: The chrysanthemum buggy

Monday, January 09, 2006

One of the new elves saw the children riding in the sea and begged his big sister for a ride so she,being a clever crafty girl made him this buggy.

Love the idea of a girl Elf making a buggy for her Brother ..........A clevergirl indeed......
My daughter is a house-builder/renovator/carpenter,etc
Back in 1982 when she was 18 and did her apprenticeship was tough going in a man"s world in this trade..She was one of only 3 in the State of Victoria in that year of 1985 when they graduated topped the class,had to show they were better than the boys....But at what cost I often ask myself.....Too hard I fear,such prejudice in those years.......
I have lost news of the trade now,but often wonder if there are females taking on these roles in 2006.....
