EDITORS COMMENTS

"From wartime heroes to mysterious phenomena, historical landmarks to exotic fruits, this eclectic collection of hints takes us on a journey through various aspects of employment. The Vickers 417 Wellington III, employed by Bomber Command, symbolizes the bravery and dedication of those who served in the military. Meanwhile, tales of UFOs and cattle mutilation remind us that even the most unexplained occurrences can leave an indelible mark on our collective consciousness. The Neptune Steamship and Duncan Dunbar Sail Ship harken back to a time when maritime trade was at its peak, showcasing the importance of seafaring employment in global commerce. Similarly, the FRANCONIA STEAMSHIP represents a golden era of luxury travel across vast oceans. Closer to home is Aldwych Tube Station - a bustling hub where countless commuters have passed through on their way to work over the years. And let's not forget about the Telegraph Office from 1900; once a vital communication center for relaying important messages across great distances. Intriguingly enough, even animals have played their part in employment history - such as Indian Military Elephants who dutifully carried soldiers into battle. On a lighter note, we encounter Turncock (Petherick), highlighting how essential workers like plumbers have always been integral to maintaining our infrastructure. Delving into culinary delights brings us citrus fruit varieties like Cedrato con fior e Sugo doppio - reminding us that agriculture provides livelihoods for many around the world. Finally, we explore Hesperides Gardens in Nuremberg; an enchanting place where nature meets artistry and offers opportunities for gardeners and artists alike. Lastly but importantly are figures like Typhoid Mary and Lloyd George's Munition Girls whose stories shed light on occupational hazards faced by some throughout history. "
