Heheheh there we go again
Seriously what did you want to do and what do you do now?
TBH, i think ive done most of what i wanted to do when i was younger with the exception of becoming a cook for the military!
I wouldve liked to experience fighting for my country in WWII but i was born 50yrs too late! lol! The reason for this?-- Because its the last time this nation and others came together as 1 and its something that the likes of us, thankfully, will never have to endure! (close combat, hardship)
As for what i do now? ............. its nice to have a bit of mystery!

I lost these illusions at the tender age of 14 after reading "All Quiet on the Western Front".
Next read I recommend for curing acute patriotitis is "Catch XXII".
