If you had a second chance?

No qualifications, no higher education, not counting my paper, roll and milk delivery jobs when I was at school, my first job was 2 days after I left school, left on Friday started on Monday, it was to supply women with threads, they were on a bonus and it was one of the most demanding, terrifieing jobs I ever had, left there and went to the local steelworks where I worked with the riggers, then into the furnaces, moved from there to a chemical factory, where I worked with sodium, chlorine and cyanide, then became a fireman, after 5 years went back to processing, became a charge hand then took redundancy and worked in tesco for a short time, had my knees replaced so decided to retire at 63. Any regrets :- no, would I change my life :- no, if I had stuck it at school I doubt if I would have met my OH as my life would have went in another direction, after this past year of being together every day we are still happy with one another, we enjoy each others company and after 56 years that's good, though I have told her she has been more fortunate than me
