I did although I ended each one a little different from the first tell! It was this act of mine that earned me permanent expulsion from their superior group.

I reserve the right to end them anyhow I like.”</p><p> “We also reserve the right to send you away any time and any how we like. It is not our fault!” They replied.</p><p>I have spent a greater part of my life in music as a songwriter, singer and guitarist. Nature and football have remained my favourite hobbies.
