I am a retired primary school teacher who dabbles in anything creative. In Covid-free times, I sell my art work and fabric jewellery at craft fairs and I have had exhibited my work in local galleries. I love my Chocolate Labrador, Cadbury, and we enjoy walking through nearby woods and the local Abbey ruins, which are just around the corner from where we live.I have designed and made my own cottage garden in a postage stamp size plot.I love reading crime novels.I love history, old buildings and stately homes and gardens, museums and galleries. I love nature and a keen environmentalist.
