I am originally from Essex, but now I am happily settled in North Yorkshire. My interests have been sports, especially cricket, and music. I play the violin and the viola as well as the piano. I play in the local orchestra and also play in a string quartet. My other main interest is my family, my children, and my grandkids. I also enjoy painting using oils.ver menos
