Just trying to work out his career time span…Assume he is early 50s, so you would imagine he’s been in paid work for around 35 years. He says he’s worked in shopping television for 25 years plus. That leaves about ten years for the following- lifeguard…feeler of music…fragrance sniffer…electrician, lead singer in a touring band, holiday camp entertainer, lumberjack, roadie, sound engineer for famous names…his non-shopping television career…and so on…That’s a lot of jobs in a very short time period…

Well he did his apprenticeship (3-4 years) and worked with the local council as a qualified sparky, so would imagine that would probably have taken up at least 4/5 years of his working life.

Shopping TV host from late 20s, then? And all the other jobs after electrical work in the space of about five years, say? Being a sound engineer good enough to work with well-known musicians is something that you would assume also has a qualification and building up experience time period. So perhaps Feeler of Music wasn’t an actual job - more a gift from God than a salaried role? And tree fella just a hobby? Or was he just two fellas?
