Posted: **Thu Oct 23, 2008 4:35 pm**

the better years was when there was a dictatorship.

Posted: **Thu Oct 23, 2008 4:57 pm**

Well the guy I worked for was an A...hole, but he is gone to heaven now, so dont want to talk to ill of the dead, but most of the time I worked very hard, for very little money, does that sound like a dictatorship, (suppose it does lol), most of the time I had a heap of fun, with some dramas, (whats a carnival or show, without them) I met many good people, who I still know today.

Not long Ridefan, about 4 years, I started at 15, ran away with the circus lol, clearly the better years were when I was young and beautiful

Posted: **Thu Oct 23, 2008 5:07 pm**

Ridefan, we are talking many years ago, the money was nothing like it is today, there was no set pay, the person I worked for was not a particularly caring individual, especially where his staff were concerned.
