Now retired I have been living and working in the Cambridgeshire Fens for most of my life. Blacksmithing and wrought ironwork started as a hobby and became my profession, I have been involved in engineering in various forms all my working life.
Making things for the garden was an outlet for my artistic creativity, helping others, garden designers and gardeners realise theirs. I am conscious that what I create, although satisfying to me, will only be complete as an object when it is in place, within its final setting.
Since retiring I have joined my local University of the Third Age branch (U3A). One of the groups I belong to is Whittlesey Wordsmiths, a creative writing group. Together as a group, we have published five anthologies of our work, Where the Wild Winds Blow, A Following Wind, Jingle Bells and Tinsel Tales, Windy Christmas and Three Sheets to the Wind. I have written one novel so far, Killing Time in Cambridge.
