| Introduction | Its fun to wake up in the morning,stretch and think, 'I fancy scones and coffee' and catch the train to Hastings, or have fish and chips in Folkstone, Turkish coffee in London or dumplings in China town. I go to the train station and look at the next train to depart and catch that one; where does it go? What will I see? Or I wake up and look at the weather and decide I will spend the day in the garden tending the vegetables, weeding the flower beds, admiring the insects which are attracted there. Paint the landscapes created by the flowers, create cards for friends or I will sit down and read whilst listening to the sounds of the birds. Its wonderful to have retired, its even more wonderful to have time to do as I have always wanted. |

| Favorite Movies | You give me the title of a cartoon film for children and I'm there. I can't take the adrenaline hit of horror or suspense, not any more, too much stress in my working life |

| Favorite Books | I tend to be drawn to teen novels such as Harry Potter, Alex Rider and fantasy |
Oscillate my metallic sonatas with your plan for the Panama canal:
Create waves of scintillating crescendos which fall like rain into the turbulent, turquoise waters below and let me bask in the sounds of silence as I paddle my own canoe
