His home was on the outskirts of Oldham, Lancashire, in the North of England. The small town of Shaw nearby was where Bob spent much of his time, being the town of his schooling and employment until age 26.
It was then that he emigrated and travelled extensively around Australia and many parts of the world for the next 11 years. Backpacking was to become a feature of his travelling. In 1976 he met who would become his future wife of 36 years in Sydney and they married in 1977. Four children followed after going to live in Tasmania. 38 years later Bob still lives there. He lived on the East Coast for 10 years and has resided on the North West Coast until this day.view less
