I am a keen birder and lover of The Natural World, especially Big Cats since I was young. I joined the YOC (RSPB Junior Branch) when I was 7 and have now been a full member of The RSPB ever since.

I live in Bath and work in Bristol as a Customer Service Advisor for The Guardian newspaper

I am a keen photogtapher and have been taking photos for 40 years now. I got my first 126 black and white Box camera when I was about 9 and now use a Cannon EOS7D MK2 and a Sigma 50-500mm IS Zoom lens for most of my bird photographs.

I am a keen sports follower, I hold a season ticket for Bath Rugby and I support Birmingham City Football Club. Also follow American Football and support The New England Patriots.

I am a keen socializer and love drinking Real Ale and am a member of CAMRA.

Other interests are travel, I have travelled extensively in North America and Europe.

I am a bit of a techno-geek and collect IPOD's for fun as I have vast collection of CD's to download to them.
