Biography
Welcome to my Website!
Since 2012 I have not been actively seeking work, out of choice, so my Website is now here as a matter of record rather than a sales pitch and I guess you could say that I have almost retired. However, I might consider an offer of work if it was too good to turn down & I was available!
See "About Me" for further information.
