About Me

Joint founder and webmaster of the The HMS Beagle Project. Professional yacht skipper (available for charter skippering & deliveries), author and freelance writer. Terrible clarinettist.

You've written a hit musical! How will you avoid having fame go to your head?

Theatres hosting musicals should be demolished and their casts sold into slavery in badly run uranium mines.
