Having spent my career designing buildings, but have now semi-retired. I have always been fascinated by mysteries, and tales of discovery.

I also love business, and the unique blend of economics, sociology and commerce it brings together. Above all, I enjoy social history, industrial archaeology and architecture.

I enjoy giving talks and strongly believe any subject can be fascinating if well researched and presented. In order to widen the potential number of audiences I speak to, I am constantly researching and preparing new topics. I like to think my talks can appeal to a wide variety of audiences. I have been giving talks on a variety of subjects for 30 years.
