On this day in UK history:
24th January 1930 – Bernard Matthews (poultry
farmer) was born. He won a scholarship to the City of Norwich School however he
found it very difficult to settle. Due to this he regularly failed his exams
and so left school with no qualifications.
Nevertheless when he died (aged 80) in November 2010 he had
amassed an estimated fortune of over £300 million and was the owner of a motor
yacht / a Cessna private jet and a Rolls-Royce motor car.
Most people living in this area (Cambridgeshire) will have
heard of Bernard Matthews.
