Served an apprenticeship as a draughtsman, and then moved to estimating. Spent 2 years in Australia and 28 years in South Africa, returning to England in 2010 where I live with my wife Elena.
Having just retired and not knowing how to fill the days, she persuaded me to write my first book my life story ‘Jam Tomorrer’
If you believe the myth of Pegasus the horse with wings who gives one ideas and inspiration, then he has sat on my shoulder ever since as I wrote another book called ‘The Pure Magic of True Love’, followed by nine short stories for children.
Seth the Salt Pot, Roger the Red Engine, Sid the Swallow, Melvin the Mouse, Benny the Beaver, Greg the Greyhound, Denis the Duck, Cedric the Salmon and Ernie the Elephant are my small adventure stories.
My latest book called The Invisible Assassin has now been published, and I am in the process of writing another one of the same character.
My wife and I enjoy visiting castles and museums; we love history, nature and animals, and when we are able, travel in Europe.
I am into any sport played with a ball, and a Chelsea supporter of long standing.
I enjoy reading, Wilbur Smith and Robert Ludlum are my favourite authors but if I pick up a book that I like, I will read until it is finished.
I have a son and two grandchildren in England, and a daughter in South Africa.
Elena has a daughter in Russia.
