Foreign Perspectives

Don’t you think that some people lead incredibly interesting lives?

Oh, sure, the film stars and whatnot may do but so do a lot of “ordinary” people and now and again you get the chance to hear some of their stories.

For instance, this morning we had someone call by who had been born in the Bahamas which, for a start, is a place that many of us would like to go to someday and in our wildest dreams would perhaps consider retiring there if it weren’t so expensive. Yet, instead he has “retired” to France instead which seems a pretty humdrum place.

Since his father was a pilot, we had a snippet of some of his stories too and now know that it’s definitely best to drive through Jamaican markets with the windows up as they have a tendency to lop off your arm with a machette just to get your watch if you don’t!
