My particular concerns are stewardship of the world for the benefit of future generations, peace, and a more equitable distribution of wealth – both locally and worldwide.

Fiction
I have a head full of stories, and love writing –
NEWS FLASH! My Novels and Short Stories are now free!
to anyone on a low income, if you’re happy to read them on screen.
But if you do like any of them, please recommend them to others, preferably via this page.
Other stuff
I’m retired, after a very varied career – see my curriculum vitae. (There’s a bit of other more random information about me personally here).
I enjoy designing and making all sorts of things from the microscopic to the mahoosive, especially making use of salvaged materials – see DIY.
I love travelling – Recounts and Photographs have some of my travel stories and photographs, amongst other things.
In the 2015 UK General Election I was the Green Party candidate for South East
Cambridgeshire (where we lived from 1992 to 2019) – didn’t win (it was a safe tory seat until 2024) but did at least save the £500 deposit
by getting 5.1% of the vote (almost four times what we got in that constituency at the 2010 election).
Here’s East Cambridgeshire Green
Party’s self-description: About Us; here’s a video we made
for The People’s Politics, a group encouraging young people to take an interest in politics: Why you should vote Green; and here I was
speaking at a hustings. (You can read the text of these speeches at
Video text and
Hustings speech text).
Finally, this was my election leaflet.
