My aunt, uncle and three cousins went out on that scheme in the 1950s.

All did very well for themselves...uncle built up quite a large business, one cousin a lawyer and another in one of Australia's most successful pop groups. I remember him visiting our grandmother here when the band were on a UK tour.
