Well designed street lighting.

This is a simple website to record a few of my hobbies.

These include stargazing, sea fishing, boating, classic cars, blacksmithing and wood turning.

I’m a marine biologist, amateur astronomer and inveterate tinkerer.  Until 2024 I worked for the Sea Fish Industry Authority as the UK seafood industry  learning and standards manager.

I’m now retired.

I have a few hobbies and interests.  In alphabetical order they are:

  • Astronomy.
  • Blacksmithing
  • Boat building.
  • Classic cars – my MGB
  • Growing stuff on my allotment.
  • Reading – I have an extensive collection of Sci-fi paperbacks.
  • Sea fishing, mostly beaches and rocks.
  • Wine making, usually with stuff grown on my allotment.
  • Wood turning.
