| Introduction | Ex-professional part-time muso, husband and proud Dad of two brilliant teenagers. Born in Harrogate, raised in Wetherby, then Rotherham until leaving home in 1974 to go to Huddersfield Polytechnic School of Music. Followed musical path until mid-80s when lack of funds required gaining a "proper job"! Started at Opera North admin, then moved to The Ridings Housing Association 18 years ago and still there! Now reached heady heights of HR Manager with newly merged organisation "Connect Housing". 2005 saw me getting back into playing after nearly 10 years off - just a bit rusty! Now playing with Leeds band - Splinter - and enjoying every minute! |
