Welcome to the site. It’s under construction as you’ll quickly realise - but then, aren’t we all?

This site is mainly about my writing - and the passions and principles that contribute to it. So let’s just say something about the writing and then we can all move on.

From village hall to Albert Hall, from hymns in Sunday worship to satire on Radio Four . . .

Some say I’m versatile - others that I have a short concentration-span. And I’ve a disturbing idea which is right.

In any event, if you want something written and it’s a field I know about, I can probably deliver the goods.

I blame my parents: open-minded in just about everything, they encouraged me to explore and I’ve never kicked the habit. And I’ve explored enough to be absolutely certain of . . . absolutely nothing. In fact I’m absolutely certain that I absolutely hate absolutism, which means that I can’t be absolutely anything about absolutely anything - but of course I’m not sure that that’s absolutely true.

If you can make sense of that, you should find the rest of this site reasonably simple.
