| Introduction | 76 years old/young, have had a very good life with wonderful people, saw a lot, done a lot, have trouble remembering detail, I'm as happy as a snipe in long grass pottering about in my garden or tinkering at old cars or mending things - find this throw-away society of modern life distressful; even recycling stuff is crap, in my youth we re-used glass bottles, jars etc. I sold milk loose, i.e. measured into a jug. Mind you I would not want to go back to those days, we had next to nothing in worldly goods and went hungry at times, rationing was a sobering and thought provoking experience, please God we never see World War ever again. We are living in good times if one can see through the nonsense side of modern living. |
