Bio: I am a maths graduate who has worked as a computer programmer, guest house proprietor, supermarket supervisor and as an exam invigilator. I've been happily married for over forty-five years and have two lovely daughters, a son-in-law and two equally lovely grandchildren. I write quizzes sporadically, and always seem to have more ideas than time or energy to write. I'm proud to have been appointed as a Tower Master Sergeant by Wes - thanks!

I've been working hard on the campaigns for the election today. Junior is clearly a cat of conviction. Evi is obviously a cat of reclamation.
Hobbies: Elephant collecting, folk dancing, puzzles & quizzes, and reading Girls' Own fiction, especially EBD's Chalet School.
