So What Does Your Father Do

Neville


Notice of absence from Neville
If I get the thumbs up tomorrow from my Doc, I hope to be in Miami on Friday for three days before jumping ship and spending three weeks sailing around South America .. Sheesh, what we do to try n get a touch of inspiration eh' .. Take care while I'm away & please forgive any delay in my going quiet for a while .. Hope to return feeling better than I do write at this moment .. AGT's Neville 😎👍

What Does Your Father Do

 

Neither the Butchers or the Bakers

were exactly candlestick makers ..

 

But the Smith’s, Parkers and Pettitt’s

 

were either Boat-builders, cooks, nurses

or medics, so what does your father do ..

      My father was a radio boffin who owned a few shops but we never saw much of him - - my Mum worked with deciphering numbers and shone in her field of (pre-computer) Comptometer programming- - -never saw much of her either so brother and I were Grandma reared - -- - oooh hope I haven't gone way off your question - -- memories come flooding at this time of year ................x.

        what a small world .. I have a feeling my mother in law bless her soul did something similar .. I shall have to ask one of the kids .. thanks Fay x

          Good question, Nev. Ofttimes it more than determines your own path way in life (although there can be a refusal admit to that). And of course, there are exceptions.......
