[chesters1]

done about everything as a "yoof" started one day a week as a gardener in 79 went self employed as a gardener and lost money (gardening is unfortunatly run by nature) managed to fill a week for just one estate and worked for 3 people and got back on my feet ,as my first boss bought the parts of estate from the other 2 members i became employed by him ,travelled abroad a bit delivering (or rather guarding) him and his deliveries to clients abroad ,met the sultan of brunie delivering a clock to him (nice chap) the boss then moved to france and i went 1 week a month there training the french staff english garden practices (we got an english couple in the end as the french chap was a bit bolshy to his new owners) the other 3 weeks i worked in his english garden (18 acres) untill it was sold.

made a big mistake in not going with him to france as a gardener in his 40 acre garden but no matter

didnt carry on as gardener for new owners in england (i only have one owner)

went to college for 3 years from 94 getting a crappy C & G in tv servicing, worked in the electronics workshop of the university of surrey untill 2000 when unfortunatly we were made homeless where we had fun touring in a camper ,worked back at unis till the workshop was closed (cutbacks)

i now am a carer for my disabled mrs ,not hard i pick her up when she falls down (very often) clean up when she has an "accident" ,drag her out of traffic when she wanders off ,and like children go investigating when she goes quiet ,i have to take her everywhere i go as she cant be left alone (she's dangerouse).

not a job with high renumeration but cheaper than putting her with a lady sitter 24/7 supplied by the government .yes i live off my mrs benefits but as with all carers the government gets their moneys worth .its not my choice but someone has to do it

One of my mates is in the same position as you but with his mum and it's draining him big time. It's a 24/7 hr a week job with no thank's. You need a lot of love and dedication to do that job.

 

I'm a professional stud
