I think I have had a very interesting life. I'm 73 now and I don't work anymore. I was in the
army for 51 years. I retired when I was 69. I have been to so many countries that I can't
remember all of them. I've been to Australia six or seven times and to South Africa three
times. I have also been once to Russia but I didn't like it at all: too cold for me!
They say that love is the greatest thing and I agree. I've been married four times but never
for more than five years. I don't think women really understand me!
I've never been on television, but I've been on the radio once. It was a program about life in
the military about twenty years ago. I met the Prime Minister on the same day. Actually, I've
met a lot of famous people: members of the royal family, famous politicians and also famous
cinema and television personalities. I've never met the American President though which is
a pity.
Because I've traveled a lot, I've seen a lot of wonderful things and have also eaten and
drunk some strange foods and drinks. I ate cat and rat in India and drank something called
Mirto on a little island in Italy many years ago.
