Interests

I have been interested in astronomy and space exploration for many years and have in the past been a visual observer of earth satellites for the Satellite Orbits Group based at the Radio and Space Research Station at Slough. Now I am content to take sky-observing activities a bit easier with planets, stars and galaxies as best I can through suburban air and light pollution.

I am also a keen gardener, working in my back garden to cultivate a variety of shrubs, trees and salad crops.

My musical interests range from classical, through cheesy pop of yesteryear to vintage progressive rock.
