Born and bred in Crewe I'm now retired and live in a Sheltered Housing Court on the edge of Sandbach, Cheshire.

75-year-old who has seen better days but I ain't dead yet. Fell walker, wildlife and nature nut, amateur photographer, bird watcher, (not a twitcher), YHA member, supporter of the clean boot and a David Attenborough x Alfred Wainwright wannabee. Looking forward to opening my Birthday card from King George on Latrigg summit.

I use flickr primarily to keep in touch with family members, (spread around the globe), real friends and a few FOF’s.

Please do not be offended if I fail to respond to a “follow” request; it's not personal :-)
