Time to Close

Although the heading says time to close; as it’s 1st January 2015 and my writings have taken ten years to get to this point, I will leave the door just slightly open in case I have time to add something of interest at some time in the future.

When starting out with my writings I had hoped that my efforts would be seen in a conventional book, form but it has taken much more effort than I expected. Trying to find a publisher would have been a very time consuming problem as I still have a busy lifestyle. Therefore I had to take the decision to make it available as an e-book, so apologies to several friends who have requested a signed copy.

My journey has been a real rollercoaster full of highs and a few very low times, I will not dwell on the latter. I have been very fortunate to travel from Mexico and the U.S.A in the west to Japan in the East and many countries’s in between. My favourite places that I visited are Deutschland, Switzerland, and Japan in that order, I should add that Josie my wife has always been more interested in the home than travel, but this arrangement worked well for both of us.

Josie Housden, and I were married on the 8th April 1965 so we are in our 54th year. Josie is a great cook has a fine singing voice and has been very good mother. We have three children Ruth, Jason, and Lydia and they are so very different each with their own distinct personality.
