About me
Most of my working life I spent with Feba, a Christian radio organisation that started with a short-wave station in Seychelles. My interest was making radio programmes that would communicate effectively the gospel of Jesus Christ. Both my work base and responsibilities changed over 35 years, ending with 27 years of international travel.
Reflecting on my life, I had many experiences that interested me but most are lost to memory now. Since journeys still take place, albeit within England and Wales, I want to log them in case anyone else might be interested.
Other journeys fascinate me, too. I enjoy IT, am shaped by what happens, and the most fascinating part of my life is my journey in faith. Still a pilgrim, still learning.
I am married, to Gabrielle (Gay) who like me lost her first spouse. I had three adult sons with Marian, who died in 2019. I have three granddaughters and one grandson; Gay has four granddaughters, so our combined 'grand' generation totals eight. With an age range from early twenties to seven (at August 2025) we have much to enjoy with them.

Travelling Kind
English, I have heard many times, is the hardest language to learn. I can see that things I like about it can cause confusion. So, 'travelling kind' can mean the kind of person who travels. It can also mean that the traveller is a kind person. It's for others to judge whether I fit either or both meanings. I'd love to be thought of as kind.
