Interests

I have been passionate about writing, photography and travel all my life so started to develop a scrap book filled with mementoes from all the places I have visited. I write about my experiences of visiting new places. These could be a new pub, a museum, a park, landscape or city's where I have been. I enjoy sampling new foods, listening to music of many different genres - reading fiction novels and scientific journals. I have a very practical side which has come into its own with renovating my house. I enjoy working in the garden, building and plastering walls, installing light fittings, shelving and wallpapering.
