- Description
- I don't want to sound droll. Starting with, "I am 65 years old. I have been married for 47 years," sounds droll but it hasn't been at all. I have had a life that has followed the protocols and regimentation that is expected of us. We have had four kids, all of which we are very proud. They are all exponentially more successful than their Mum and Dad, but we did the ground work to help them on their way. No brag, just fact!
Being married young, I worked at whatever I could get that paid the highest. Usually, as an unskilled worker, that wasn't very high. I had 37 jobs in just one year once. Really, I had more but that was all the tax certificates I could supply the Taxation dept. I was never out of work for more than a day. I couldn't afford to be.
I drifted toward working for myself having worked with others and realising I worked much harder than most so I, rightfully so, thought I should be recompensed at a higher rate.
Hang on, this is supposed to be a description of oneself, not a life story on the front cover of a book!
If I don't stop now I will be too tired to submit this before I fall asleep.
In short; I am looking for someone I can correspond with. I like to think I have a broad mature mind and that helps me to look at things objectively.
If you would like some in depth, light hearted, sincere, engrossing conversation, and you like gardening, golf, cooking (only because I have to cook) and just some old fashioned banter to while away the hours, Vote one, Peter. Sounds like I am running for mayor, doesn't it!
Anyway, If I don't hear from you; have a nice life!
Peter.
