NextBackI lived in the Terry's hostel and I married a young man I met in Redditch.”
"My brother was over here, in Redditch. He said, 'Come over for a holiday'. It was only supposed to be for two weeks but I have stayed here ever since.” “My brother worked at Terry's and I got a job there in the factory. It was very strict and the foreman was a really horrible man. My husband's mum was in hospital and my husband asked me to go with him to see her. I asked the foreman if I could have time off and he said, 'You haven't married that chap yet, you haven't got permission' I still went. He stopped my money and extra for not having permission. The door was locked on time and if you were one minute late when you got to the factory you had to lose a quarter of an hour half an hour if you were 16 minutes late.”
