| Introduction | I'm a Christian (Church of England) and a musician (Piano, Bassoon). I did my degree in electrical science and worked for 30 years in the energy industry. I then did another degree, in theology, shortly after which I retired from my engineering job. I am now trying to start a new career translating children's books from German into English. I am organist of my local church. |
