the last time i heard the words "make pumps. 20" it was when i went for a days trial at dunlop shoes. in front of me were a pile of cloth and rubber fitments and 40 laces. you had to complete 20 pairs of pumps in 4 hours to get the job. now i did get the job, but my friend didnt. he only made about 15 pumps. later he went to work at his dads garage and learned to do MOTs. hes doing ok. he bought a house in 2003 and now its worth triple. he is thinking of selling and going to australia though.

Nice filming, nice editing just a tad to loud on the music maybe sound from the fire & Crews in the background with the music over lapping. But still good well done ;o)

In Brunei a 20 pump  shop house fire had been occurred somewhere in the 1970s. But at that time Brunei only own 10+ fire appliance. Also at that time several staff are undergoing snorkel familiarization course in HK. I wonder if Brunei had owned the Simon Snorkel at that time.
