Excelled in Art, Physics, Maths and English Literature. Bought my first property in 1977, refurbished it and sold it for more than double purchase price year later. I have had three children, got four grandchildren. In total I have bought five properties, refurbished them, sold three for more than double purchase price, live in one and let the last out as rental. I am a private Landlord. I have designed and made bespoke furniture and designed and done Landscape gardening. I am happy with my life and now enjoy illustrating and writing my poem books.view less
