Hobbies and interests
In my spare time I like to read, particularly the science fiction and fantasy genres, and I am a keen modelling hobbyist for table-top wargames. I’m also an active member of my local gaming group which caters for board games, table-top wargames and role-playing games. As part of this group I also run games for other hobbyists of all ages, capabilities and interests. Lastly I enjoy cooking and experiencing other cultures through the medium of food.
