Greetings! This domain contains material that I would like to share with anyone who might find it interesting. It is a mixed bag of subjects of interest to me.
Travel Map
I've visited 215 cities in 31 countries outside UK.
Travel
Travelling is a passion of mine. During my working life I have travelled frequently, but only to a limited number of countries. In recent years I have started travelling for pleasure to the kind of place that my business travel never took me to. The places that I can recall visiting I have marken on a map at Tripadvisor where I indicated my favourite cities as: Istanbul (Turkey), Lisbon (Portugal), Vancouver (Canada) and Tokyo (Japan).
If you are interested in my more recents experiences then see the Travel pages.
Bell Ringing
Bell Ringing is a pastime that my family has been engaged in for generations and I suppose I had from childhood thought that I should get around to trying it one day. In 2004 I gave it a try and there turned out to be much more to it than I had anticipated. My interest gradually grew as my practical bell handling ability increased and an understanding of how varied the techical aspects can become should one be interested.
I decided that I would attempt to describe the practicalities as I learn them and before I forget what it was like to get started. Perhaps my experiences will help other learners, to that end there is material devoted to Bell Ringing.
In October 2009 I was elected a member of the WDCRA Southern Branch Committee, I'm not sure what I have let myself in for. I also help maintain the Four Shires Guild of Bell Ringers web site.
Blog
Even though many of my professional colleagues have written a blog for years I never felt the need and was not sure that I was comfortable with the constraints of my employer's policy on blogging. However, I have changed my mind and have now started one. As I start I'm not sure what it will topics it will cover though it will contain my musings on subjects that interest me. You can take a look at those musings at Blogger.
