Welcome to my Website.

Now retired, I wrote this website for the enjoyment I get from computing, dog obedience training and trialling as well as watercolour painting as leisure pastimes. It is to be regularly updated as new ventures unfold.

I also have taken up researching our family past so that it can be passed down to our grandchildren very soon. Most of this has been done via the Internet and has been very rewarding.

This website sort of pulls all these things together into one place specifically for my family and friends to browse and see what I am doing.

I am pretty active in our local dog club ( Penrith Kennel and Obedience Club) as you will see from the many roles I carry on their website which is also my doing, so if your interests are there, you could click on the link above. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this, my personal site.

When possible as a volunteer instructor at the dog club, I encourage people to practice responsible dog ownership. Our two Golden Retrievers, Barney and Jessie greatly assist me by example.
