My mum is an astronaut who is on mars currently
Both my parents are retired.

They've had many jobs in their lives though.

Most recently my mother was a carer of elderly people, but prior to that she did secretarial work both in the UK and abroad, including in the OECD in Paris for 11 years, and in a chartered accountants in Melbourne.

My dad most recently was a security guard at a car auction site, prior to that he briefly worked as a night manager of a hotel, before that he was a security guard at Leeds Met Uni. Before that he ran his own driving school, and before that he was a police detective at the Paris police headquarters.

Stone masonry is a good trade to have, I don't see many proper stone masons around these days. I've often thought about getting into it myself but I'd have no idea where to start. Wood's a nice medium to work with, but stone seems so much more appealing to me. Not sure why.

Dad's a landscape gardener, mum's been unemployed for a few years after doing her back in. She's had a couple of interviews recently though, so she's getting back up on the figurative horse.
