Why a web site? Our daughters
and son-in-law, saying they knew little about 'what I did' in life, asked
me to produce a memoir. Having done that, and never having
published much about my journeys in the deserts and through life, I
thought a web site would suffice, perhaps with
some extracts from the memoir. So here goes! |
Soldier: Active
service in Korea, Cyprus and the Congo (Zaire). Commissioned into
the Royal Engineers 1955, retiring as Lieutenant Colonel in 1981.
First Director:
the Foundation for Science & Technology 1981 - 2000.
Desert explorer: expeditions
to and camel journeys in the Libyan Desert, the Sahara and in Oman.
Art and music: As
a bass, dabbling in water colours.
Personal: Born 19 Nov 1933.
Married Harriet (née McElwee). Three
daughters: Susannah, Phillie and Chrissie, and son-in-law Giles with
grandson, Spike.
I have recently started a new interest:
cultivating figs.
