”I make shoes for everyone even you, while I still go barefoot” From the track “I and I” on Bob Dyland’s album “Infidels” That line has a resonance with me, I am always doing things for people in the neighbourhood, and don’t usually ask for anything in return, and rarely is anything offered.
Recently on the release of my book I thought all my friends stood behind me, I had twenty or so pre orders, but only a few came to fruition.
The disappointment was such, that I actually considered hanging up my hat as a Samaritan for a while, but then that wouldn’t be me, and besides what would walls do without a head to bang on them?

FREELANCER.

I work for myself it’s good for my health
I find freedom from bosses the answer
I’m no chancer or romancer, just a free lancer.
I’m a seeker of happiness not wealth.

All words Meadowhead Bard.
