The early morning light is superb isn't it. I am often awake in the middle of the night as the darkness envelopes the world with the moon and stars hanging above me appearing stationary as if to exacerbate the slow passage of time. It is times like those, which are far too often, that I wonder whether this is the situation that led Douglas Adams to come up with that beautiful phrase (and book title) 'the long dark tea time of the soul'.
I am an ex-actor/ stage manager/ singer in opera choruses.
I've done loads of different jobs over the years to supplement the erratic and often meagre sums paid to thesps, notably painting and decorating , which I enjoy and have got good at.
Jackie and I got married in 2007, bought wb Pippin and moved to the river Cam.
Hobbies include acquiring and restoring bits of old junk, the biggest piece of which is a 1948 Alvis TA 14 dhc motor car. It is currently at my parents' place in Bournemouth, waiting patiently for me to get around to finishing it.....
