January 20, 200719 yr Are you Tony Blackburn Simon???? In a previous life I worked very hard and very long hours doing nothing much exciting apart from the enjoyment I got from running my own business. Now I do very little, which is nice in some ways but not in others. I miss the cut and thrust of being in business. No real calim to ame other than I got to meet a lot of professional golfers and got a lot of freebies. Oh well time for a nap !
January 20, 200719 yr Avoided work as much as possible, go places, did things. Basically, an idle life of loafing.
January 20, 200719 yr I must have done something right, because I got born in this one with a happy-go-lucky nature, and that is a very lucky thing to have happen to one. In this life, I spent my First Youth messing about and my Middle Age careering around. Ten years ago, when my wife died, my sister tried to enrol me in the University of the Third Age. I decided that could wait till I had had a Second Youth. I have one claim to fame---I held the highest management position on Earth. At 21000 foot altitude, managing Advanced Base Camp for some Lithuanian climbers on the North side of Everest, there was no higher manager on Earth. In Kathmandu on the way back, an American woman asked me: "Honestly, what's it like on one of those exhibitions?" and I replied: "To be honest, it is a very expensive way of being uncomfortable". She swung round on her husband and said: "This man has just described OUR holiday in Tibet, too". And hubby gave me a right jaundiced look. What we did was whatsoever we made of it.

January 21, 200719 yr I was on an ITV spiritual program once with Uri Geller and a famous hypnotist. I was into a weird kind of Indian meditation and got hypnotiaclly regressed. I worked for the East India Trading Company in my previous life and planted tea in Assam. I was English which confuses me and went to Eton. I met an untimely death, which was quite disturbing to remember. I was born in 1864 and died in 1900. The life before I was an Indian diamond merchant, living in Bombay. edit Previously in this life, I was a prediction maintenance engineer, well-testing engineer, alcoholic and pizza chef. Played rugby for a Scottish first division team, hanging up my boots when 20, to be a kickboxer before coming to Thailand.
