	Earlier this morning he described a smuggler's job, how they were criminals etc.... some of my ancestors were smugglers, and yeah they weren't so nice (as reported in a local paper in the 1700s) - but it's only one sided!! Chloe

On +1 at the moment he's doing Victorian 'careers' and the worst job of all. Some of these jobs have led to the origin of some of our surnames. Looks good, and I think we're all interested in history! Brenda
