About Me

I am a writer on art and design, a cartoon illustrator, and webmaster from the North of England living in Brighton on the south coast of England. As I enter the mysterious and bewildering world of semi-retirement, I will be logging holidays, coach trips, visits to steam railways and various other reflections on the price of real ale, British food and other distractions.
