音乐、电影和书籍

Personal growth -Louise Hay, travel and family focus . Diverse and ecclectic taste- open to new sounds and ideas, tends to be less party and more laid back.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Becoming a Dad has been fantastic (since 1996). Travelling and hitch hiking in the late 80's for 4 years was wonderful- seeing the changes as the Berlin wall came down- spending time in eastern europe. I also have volunteered to work with children and drove my motorbike from South Africa to Zimbabwe and Malawi in late 1980's.I assisted with peace monitoring in first South Africa elections(1994) , worked again with children and involved in social justice and educational issues.I am frustrated by the lack of accountability in government decision making- an international problem.

教，学，和分享

I am open to new ideas and sharing what I know- I have helped in a few schools , focused on assisting teachers and have helped in children's homes.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

My friends say that I am caring, courageous and compassionate- and a bit of a stirer. I strive to be respectful to all but will normally speak up and out if I disagree with something- and will aim to back up what I say with rationality or provide personal experience . I think the references help give insight to what I share- and enjoy sharing- with others.
I know North Staffordshire well and could be able to show guests around
