b 1949, lived in southern England all my life, Grammar school educated, but recently did a degree course.Sold insurance for years, but at age of 42 studied to become a nurse, and since qualifying have for 13 years worked in a minor injuries unit in Hampshire. I inherited my father's interest in wild orchids, and have spent happy times finding them in UK, France and Spain. I am a licenced Radio Amateur (G4PGW), read about European history (mostly since 1789: I wasn't interested in it at school!), and fool around with 1.3 hectares I own in Devon. I enjoy outside pursuits, such as walking in the Lake District and the mountains of Northern England, and cycling and camping in France and the UK. I cook and enjoy food, and recently begun to learn about wine.
