About this Member

Just turned fifty, happily married, two children - one doing Maths at Uni, one getting on really well at school who wants to be an actress!

Fanatical football fan (Wrexham FC), keen golfer (not very good), loves reading and messing around with the comp.

I really enjoy the company of friends, neighbours and work colleagues - a good chat and exchange of opinions, which is probably why I like dooyoo.

I live for my holidays which are usually spent in this beautiful country of ours and can think of nothing better than going away for the weekend.

I think dooyoo is great - feel that I know many of the readers and writers very well and treat them as friends.
