Hello to all that take the time to read this. Many years have gone by since I grew up during the 60's&70's in a new town in Scotland. Out all hours playing and that includes time I should have been at school! If only I knew what was to come later in adult life I would have taken more time off to do more of what kept me happy, (at that time). Some times I used to leave home at 8.30am and hitch a lift 30 miles to the beach and spend a few hours there just watching the fishing boats come and go with, (at that time) large catches of fish and prawns and arrive home at the usual school time with the help of some cars or trucks enroute. Some days I would just go fishing to some local rivers/streams 3-4 miles from my home and some days i went to school. Well I did have to learn how to count my fish!
Some days i think of the things I did as I grew up and I feel the young ones today are missing out on experiences i and others had at that time.......
