Since my teen years I have been passionate about Aviation history and Art. I have studied both over many years and both have given me the greatest pleasure.

Professionally I have been a medical secretary. Now I volunteer at the Jet Age Museum at Gloucester Airport where I am up in the Vulcan cockpit and talk about its history to the visitors. Also the Wilson Museum in Cheltenham where I am transcribing the great diaries of ET Wilson, father of the Antarctic explorer Edward Wilson.

In more recent years I discovered the history of the Napoleonic era and this has led to talks on two of the greatest battles of the time, 'Waterloo' and 'Trafalgar'. My aim is to bring both the subject and personalities to life in all my talks. A precis of 8 subjects available on request.

I can travel to within 10 miles of my home (GL52) but with a small mileage charge for up to 25 miles.
