When they moved there as a married couple in 1906, they were cowfeeders i.e. they had cows in milk and sold milk round the doors. Then they had a byre and then "larries" and his brother had a dairy in Strathmartine Rd., with the first milk lorry in Dundee a model T Ford, I could write a lot more and have done so in my series of "Poems and Stories". My other grandfather was stage manager at the Palace and at the King's Theatre in the 1914-18 war.</p> Animals Entertainment Food and Drink Work / Working Life Trawler Bill Mon, 10 Mar 2014 16:03:48 +0000 fiona.christison 1197 at http://bygone.dundeecity.gov.uk
