Born Prudhoe on Tyne, Northumberland, England 30 November  1937
I left Prudhoe west school at 15 1952 just before Christmas and started work in between Christmas and the New year in a local Garage for the princely sum of £1and 2s and 6p (113 pence) for a 48hour week. It seems Laughable considering the minimum wage is (613 pence per hour) the days of slave labour are over.
Completing my apprenticeship in March 1959 followed by 2 years compulsory National Service serving overseas. Joining BKS, now British Airways as a ground Equipment Engineer. Also having other interests I qualified as a (Fellow of the international council for Health and Holistic Therapist’s) FICHHT now retired.
I joined a creative writing class discovering I could write poetry having published over 100 poems, one in particular which I received a thank you letter from Her Majesty Queen Elisabeth 2nd.
Other interests a sequel to Lord Rupert Blocky, also a study of the problems of Dyslexia
