I am the health reporter at the Evening Gazette in Middlesbrough and trying to improve my photography skills. Also interested in making new friends and contacts in the Teesside area and sharing your pics and stories!

I am just married (Oct 6 2012) and have a sister, brother and two nieces who are my favourite subjects. I also enjoy singing, reading, most music from all eras and genres from Indie and pop to classical, football (watching!) and, more recently, running and (trying) to keep fit!
