BIO

So much to say, so little space. I could write anything here and few would query it unless they knew a fact that didn't fit.
So, let's start with the basics. I was born in England and grew up in villages and small towns in the south. We moved around every few years because of my father's job. That meant I went to five different schools between the age of 5 and 18. I went to University and then worked in large companies for most of my life, but I always wanted to travel. I gave up the 9-to-5 a few times and eventually came back each time. Nearly 6 years ago, I said "that's it" and then was invited to work on just one more contract to help a friend. That came to an end in August 2017.
The arts have always intrigued me; I acted in my first play at the age of 8; I sang on stage at the age of 18. Luck would have it that I revisited that very stage many years later for a singing competition; it felt good to be back there. I held my first camera when I was 9; a Brownie 127; I still have it in a box upstairs. I have taken classes in drawing and painting, but that didn't stick - I suppose my photographic eye wanted more than a pencil or a brush could provide.
