| Introduction | I now live in Devon. Years and years ago I studied Geography at St. Andrew's University, and still have an interest in the countryside. Career wise I was a bit of a drifter, and spent a lot of years working in university admin (in philosophy) and since having my children worked in primary schools, both in the classroom and office.

I like to do a job that I can see the worth in, and have been very lucky. I am probably a little odd (although perhaps that is for others to say), but the great thing about getting older is that you care less what people think.
