I live in the West Midlands, England and was born in 1952.

After 25 years of teaching in Secondary schools (11-18+), I spent the next 15 years working on IT-related projects before retiring in 2012.

My main hobby is Scuba diving and I've been involved in instruction of recreational diving for almost 30 years to date.

Having looked at the Wikipedia articles on Scuba and related topics, I felt obliged to create an account to take part in improving the topic to the best of my abilities. I'm now using Wikimedia Commons to hold some of my photographs for use in Wikipedia.
