A I have become older my wish I had done or could do list has become very short in fact it is down to four one old one from life's middle distance and a couple of resent ones.
The oldest and in its way hurts still. My Farther slipped of his mortal coil when I was seventeen, so I really did not know him as a man in the way my sons talk to me as men, he of course missed out as well.
The middle one is that I had sons though I did want a daughter. Though my wife and I did decide that we did not want to enter Baby sex lottery. But now I have a daughter in law the same age as a daughter would be with the bonus of a grand daughter.
The more up to date two, I wish I could still could drive an Automobile but with my eyesight it would be carnage , and tongue in cheek I wish I could see my last birthday again.
This is very maudlin how about a change to the things I was glad I was there or I did that!!!
I will start wit two the two times in my life when I was there when history was being made. The first time was in Liverpool during the 1960s music revolution Cavern club, those four young men with those strange haircut's and all that went with it. Though at the time I did not know that I was in the middle of history being made.
The other time was I was in Berlin the day the people of East Germany climbed the wall and the police opened Check Point Charlie to allow the flood of people in to West Berlin. I still have some pieces of that Berlin wall in my study, and just between our selves I have never been kissed by so many women ever but dont tell my wife I enjoyed it also I did know history was being made.
