Skatey The Life of Les Skate Les, ‘tidying up’ at Rol’s property. June 2019 I’ve never really had a lax day. There was always something to do. I think people thought, ‘Oh Les, he’s semi-retired, he’s not doing much, we’ll get him to come and do it!’ It’s progressed from there. Anyway, I enjoyed those years right up till I was eighty-one and I’m still doing a bit, even though I’ve got this chronic complaint. But that’s not worrying me. I go off to my son Rol’s place, he’s got thirty acres of bush. I go up there and keep that clean and tidy for him. Plus, I’ve renovated and extended his house. I enjoy what I’m doing. If I want to stay home, I stay home. If my wife wants me stay home, I stay home! We get by. 76
