Guess I'm a little bit beyond the usual age of the folk on here, but it provides a window on the world around me. I'm a comparative newcomer to the world of computers, - I got my first one six years ago, just before my wife died, so I'm still struggling with the technical side, all the little faults and foibles it keeps coming up with, but it is a wonderful source of information and humour.

I left school at fourteen and started work as a telegram lad at the Post Office in 1940 and stayed there until I joined up at eighteen. I joined the RAF as an airframe mechanic, and was transferred into the Navy (Fleet Air Arm) after the war in Europe ended, - to go to the Far East to join the war against Japan. Luckily that ended before I got there. (I always like to say that when they heard I was coming, they surrendered!)

I returned to the Post Office after the war as a postman, then going on to the counter, then serving in various departments and ending up as a junior manager.

FRIENDS, LADIES ONLY PLEASE!
I'm not into building up a big friends list, just a few with whom I can chat and joke. I love the ladies, and no, I'm not a serial predator, I just like their company, so no gents, please.
