I'm a retired agricultural research scientist cum academic librarian cum IT tutor working on my allotment and writing novels in the hut when not helping with the washing up or visiting our three children and their growing families (seven grandkids).

I have shelves of books encompassing religion* ancient and modern, natural history, farming, ecology, geography, gardening, poetry, philosophy, literary criticism, Kent, Wales, Northumberland, history and archaeology, especially Romano-British archaeology.

I borrow novels from the village library. Favourite authors include Richard Powers, DE Stevenson, Joanna Trollope, and ... erm ... that other person whose name I can't remember.
