I’m here because my parents shared a night of passion back in 1951 so if you want to take it up with anyone, complain to Thelma and Horace.
Although I was born in Newport, my formative years were spent at Christchurch where I roamed the countryside and got to know a lot about nothing very much.
I’m Welsh, but not passionate about it. When it comes to sport (rugby) I support Newport RFC first and Wales second.
My first ‘real’ job was with the Royal Navy and I tend to suffer from the slightly odd sense of humour shared by all those who’ve spent time in the ‘Senior Service’.
I spent many years teaching IT for a living at University of Wales, Newport: it wasn’t too exciting, but it paid the mortgage!
Having ‘retired’ from higher education I now concentrate on my real passion – photography.
I really like the varied UK coast and countryside and prefer being outdoors except when I’m cooking (and I do love to cook). I’m also very fond of good wine.
Oh yeah: I don’t really live in Newport, but no-one’s ever heard of Undy!
