Married 53 years to Margaret we now have an extended family most recent addition being Ruby our first great grand daughter, now nearly 6. Always interested in all kinds of music I love popular classics, swing band music, rock & roll, popular ballads and of course some ballad singers. Spent 16 years as a football referee under the auspices of Hampshire F.A. reaching County standard as a class 1 referee and thoroughly enjoyed it. Always enjoyed football though never good enough to play to a decent standard so put a little back by refereeing. I have no motorcycles at all now, and my love were and are Norton motorcycles, not only owning them, but touring all over Europe before and after the Berlin Wall came down. An understanding wife allowed me to tour Europe every other year for 20 years and holiday with her on alternate years, which brings me onto my favourite type of holiday these days, cruising. Cruising the Baltic countries, West Indies, Cape Verdi, the Baltic and the Med in relaxed mode can't be beat. Have found out the old saying "I don't know how I found the time to retire" is true, I'm always doing more around the family now than I ever did before. I have found some time however to write, starting in 2007 its taken 7 years to get part 1 into print, lets hope part 2 takes me a lot less time. I am into nature and wildlife, astronomy, the Big Bang (how ARE we here?) and a little photography when I have the time.visualizza meno
