I have lived and worked all my life in the Garden of England, not far from the English Channel ports of Dover and Folkestone. For the last 
30 years I have been an agricultural craftsman at Swantonfarms .

I have been married to Thelma since 1966 and we have two children. Our son Matthew is Thirty and a Microsoft Service Engineer who is still 'playing the field' (do I sound jealous?) Our daughter, Samantha, is an office assistant with a large furniture retail chain, and mother to  our  only grandson, Daryll who is seven.
