Chadkirk county park, Romiley, Stockport, Cheshire
I have always had a close connection to nature and find the countryside and natural world a form of escapism. For the last ten years I have been involved with the friends of chadkirk, see the link below.

The co-operative history
I am an employee member of the co-operative group and have been interested in the 150 year history of the company for as long as I can remember.
The beginnings

Artists that I adore :)
David Hockney
For over 15 years I have been a fan of the wonderful artist that is David Hockney.
The colour and life he can bring to an image makes my heart sing.
God bless this amazing man!
The Johnston typeface
The perfect typeface, is it possible to be in love with a type face? YES!

Fractured
Recently I acquired this beautiful piece of art work called Fractured from Lucia T Miller, my
friend from across the pond. Lucia is the Grandmother of Taylor Schilling (Orange is the new black).I feel privileged to own such a wonderful piece of work. Thanks Lucia for sending her all the way from Illinois to me here in the UK. She now lives in my newly refurbished basement and sits on the window sill sleeping away.
