My Bio

Getting old and falling apart. I was born 1947 in Kent England but have spent most of my life in and around Bristol. I should really be a Canadian but my mother returned to England just before I was born, my brother was very ill and she was hoping he could get treatment in London.


My working life has mainly been in and around the legal profession, because I happened to end up taking a law degree although my intention was to be an electronics engineer. Long story.


I have been playing with photography since I was 10 with a Kodak Brownie. I have got through a lot of cameras since then. My uncle was keen on photography and had a good dark room so I learned to process and print negatives.


Married, divorced, 3 children and 3 grand children so far. .


What I can do now is limited and depends on my state of health and how much pain killer I have to take. Another operation due this year -successful tendon transplant.


I like beer as well and used to brew, I am tempted to have another go but I live in a small block of flats an the smell of boiling hops might not be tolerated.
