Life History

Notes

• My father was only five feet tall. He had hazel eyes and dark brownhair and (I always thought ) a lovely nature. One did things for himbecause you wanted to. He always asked you to do it, never ordered.

  I forgot to add that both my brother and father were heavy smokers.Baylys has given it up about five years ago but is still paying theprice.  Father also was very keen on fishing. It was his main hobby.Wegrew up on fish. Sometimes for every meal. I too am quite keen onfishing. I really like fresh fish to eat. None of this frozen stuff.
