Formerly a journalist and businessman, I am now an author and publisher. I’ve travelled to the farthest corners of the world and even to the Moon (!) to research my books and talks. My wife, Viv, accompanies me on most of these epic adventures, riding a motorbike of her own and emerging as the heroine of the story. For my Moon mission I narrowly avoided being shot into space by calling on experts from NASA and Moscow instead.

My talks are all Power Point presentations and I use 60 illustrations or more in each talk. The Mother Moon talk is also available as a stand-alone if required (see below). I can supply my own equipment though I’m happy to use in-house equipment when it is available. Talks usually last between 40 and 60 minutes and can be split for a tea break if required. I’m happy to provide a Q&A session at the end of the talk. I also bring along some books and support materials, so a display table would be welcomed for these.

• STAND ALONE: I can also provide an unsupported stand-alone talk for Mother Moon. It can be anything from 30-60 minutes long, as required.

• SHORT NOTICE: I’m often available at short notice, so give me a call if you are stuck.

• NORFOLK: I rarely give talks outside my home county.

• FULLY VACCINATED: I have had all my covid jabs.
