Where did we encounter a parade of people in Edwardian costumes? Was Sir Edmund Hillary's ascent of Everest really the first? What are cup and ring carvings? Who predicted that Richard III would die at Bosworth? And why is The Tomb of the Otters unique? Find out the answers from this talk that takes you on a journey starting local, then travels through the UK, Europe, the US, Australia and Africa with a focus on people and history.

I give a series of illustrated themed talks on country walking, both rural and urban, under the umbrella title of Amazing Walks. The talks are fully illustrated with a digital photographic show and I bring all my own equipment. I have given talks to W.I.s, U3As, PROBUS and various other groups and have received very positive feedback. I have been successfully auditioned by Lancashire Federation of WIs and I am on the recommended list of North West U3A groups. I have been complimented on the details given in the talks and the quality of my photographs. I can travel to groups within Lancashire and Cheshire or anywhere within a 45 mile radius or so of Manchester. I am willing to come at short notice providing I am available as I might be out walking or talking! Please book early for 2026 as the places are limited and are soon filled up. Provisional bookings will be accepted also.
