Title: Old Timer Returns ~ Speedy Gonzales!
Post by: Michael Alexander on March 06, 2015, 06:02:25 AM
Nice to have ol' Speedy Gonzales in my office this week, had a cup of coffee and spent almost two hours talking about the past.

Speedy came back to see the town, at almost 80 , he looks in an amazing condition...

Speedy and his late wife, Antoinette , lived in Oranjemund with their three sons from the late 70's to the late 80's....

It's always great to see old timers come "home"

Hmmmm....old timer, indeed. I left Omund ten years before Speedy arrived.
What category does that place me in? Ancient timer perhaps?
Think of a name for it, somebody.

Bob! I classify folk from your era as Pioneers, not Old Timers.....
