<p><b>''A great read. I am honoured to have worked with such a legend'' </b><b>David Nott</b><br><b>''A role model for women''</b><i><b> Independent</b></i><br><b>''A wonderful read'' Julian Fellowes<br>''Remarkable'' Lauren Laverne</b><br><b>''Charming'' <i>Guardian</i></b><br><br><i>We were occasionally expected to travel by ambulance to a serious case and would always have a kit of tools and drugs ready for emergency calls. On one occasion, we were responding to a man who had fallen into the hold of a grain ship and broken his leg. I was expected to go down a pole into the ship to administer analgaesia before he could be rescued. The ''audience'' of shipworkers delighted in telling me that there were rats the size of dogs down in the grain. The other problem was that this was the era of the mini skirt, and you can imagine what that meant. Following the incident, I instituted the purchase of some ''Casualty Officers Emergency Dungarees'' as an addition to the kit.</i><br><br>Averil M
