  • Interests
    I have varied interests. I enjoy playing sports and regularly play five a side football at weekends. This helps to lessen the effect of the real ale I also enjoy drinking. Hobgoblin is my beer of choice although I quite like Castle Rock ales and some from the Black Isle Brewery in Inverness after tasting them whilst on honeymoon.
    I enjoy computer games, regularly playing the latest Call of Duty or PES games.
    As far as railways are concerned I have a interest in preserved steam, regularly visiting lines in the local area. I am an occasional volunteer on the Great Central Railway where I previously worked at Quorn and Woodhouse station. I now volunteer as a TTI.
    I am currently in the early stages of planning and building my new layout, Skaleby Quay and have started a small shunting layout as a Christmas project.

  1. is not looking forward to the start of the new school year tomorrow. Another 11 and half months of new government intiatives, Michael Gove talking out of his rear orrifice, reduced pay, unreasonable workload and demands. I'd say roll on next summer but don't want to wish my life away. At least there is organising and exhibiting at the Weston show to look forward to.

      My old man left teaching in 1985 after over 20 years in the job. He knew it was all going downhill back then.

He didnt mind teaching and when kids didnt listen in the good old days he would lob the board rubber at them! The good old days of teaching, that said thank god they don't have that now, Mr Powell is bad enough as he is
