I am 25 years old but have had a very hard life. O.K. So you don’t believe that so I guess that I’ve been rumbled. At the back end of April I’ll be 64 and I’ve been medically retired these last twelve years. But I have had a hard life as a major heart attack has testified to which was reinforced by a second spell sampling hospital food. I left school with no qualifications and first worked down a coal mine (some said I was a pit pony but it did feel that way) and then installing the new fangled TV aerials. At the age of 16 years and 10 months I joined the Royal Navy and served for 13 years as a Radio Electrician. In Civvy Street I was a foreman in manufacturing electrical engineering making transformers, coils and small motors until redundancy reared its ugly head. Mobile ice cream salesman, community sports leader, lifeguard, manager of a newsagent and private hire taxi driver whilst being a single parent all added to the stress of surviving which explained the early and major complaint from my heart. After escaping from the clutches of the hospital and deciding that spending the rest of my life watching TV and the four walls was not for me, I bought a computer and went to college for two years on a part time basis. Half a dozen “O” levels and a couple of “A” levels later (Desk Top Publishing and Creative Writing) I managed to turn my new hobby into an obsession and have been glued to a keyboard ever since. So instead of looking at the four walls or a telly I now watch a monitor. That must say something. Please visit my web site, as it is different to the norm. Some afternoons I serve tea and bikkies. So that’s it, me in less than 400 words. . Computer Football Cricket TV Sci fi films Internet
