Detrad - the facts! : More about me.
I'm married and live in the Midlands of England. Our two offspring have long since fledged and left the parental nest.
Quite a bit of my time is consumed by my involvement with a health charity which supports cardiac patients and their carers. What is left is used in a variety of ways - ranging from the sampling of real ales, to communicating with varied people from all over the planet via the Internet.
I tend to the philosophy which sees the present as the only time which I possess - this encourages me to make the most of the opportunities which life presents.
My main interests are: archeology, art, cinema, computing (PC & Mac), cooking, gardening, geomorphology, healthy living, history, meteorology, music (most sorts except for rap), natural history, theatre, travel.
