Joan worked shifts, 3 Weeks days then 1-week nights.
While working nights, during the break time the machines were closed down.
This made the work shop very quiet, then out on the rafters above came the rats scurrying around.
Joan used to tie up the bottoms of her boiler suit legs to stop the rats from running up her legs.
