About Me

Comments re-sizing code
Well, hi everyone who enters here. Welcome to my sometimes surreal world of the larger than life, ever youthful, never grow older. I am 6'5" tall 280 lbs but that varies a lot throughout the year. I reside in the Midlands but I don't know why!!
I only recently heard about My Space and I am trying hard to figure it all out. I have seen some great profiles but I don't know how to create one as good as some I have seen.
I think it's a great way of getting to know people, being able to display your pics and your music tastes/videos etc... is a great way to give insight into a person.
Anyway, thanks for stopping by and looking me over. Better to be looked over than overlooked. I appreciate that. Please watch this space.

PSDon't take offence if when you request to go on the friends list I ignore it. It's great to get these kind requests but if I go to look who you are and your profile is anonymous, i.e. set to private then I do not understand the logic in this.
You can see me but I cannot see you. It sucks and it is very silly. Please don't ask to add me if you won't show me who you are.
I'm constantly getting these requests despite what I've said above so PLEASE once again I DON'T WANT TO BE YOUR FRIEND IF YOU ARE ANONYMOUS!!!!!Above me & Sarah in 1946, below our wedding in 1928

My Interests

I am interested in all kinds of things, I like 'wackiness''sillyness' and 'off the wall' scroll on and you might get an idea of me....

This is how it all began....




Just A Closer Walk With Thee

I am weak, but Thou art strong; Jesus, keep me from all wrong; I'll be satisfied as long As I walk, let me walk close to Thee.

Just a closer walk with Thee, Precious Jesus, hear my plea, Daily walking close to Thee, Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.

Through this world of toil and snares, If I falter, Lord, who cares? Who with me my burden shares? None but Thee, dear Lord, none but Thee.

Just a closer walk with Thee, Precious Jesus, hear my plea, Daily walking close to Thee, Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.

The two other videos you see here are Electrica Salsa By Off and My Patch By Jim Noir, I love them!!!

Oh and by the way I must not forget Al Bowlly on the right. Dear Al, such a great singer in his day. I love his music. Al died in an air raid in London in 1941.

Kay Starr is on the right too. I have been a fan of hers for years. She is a lovely lady, lives in Bell Air CA. I met her once, in this clip an early pre-runner to the pop video. Hope you like it.

I hope you enjoy my ecclectic collection of videos and images.
