| I was born in Dundee, Scotland but as part of an Army family moved house on a regular basis due to Dad’s postings and by the age of 16 I had attended 13 different schools around the mainland and Northern Ireland.

Workwise, I have been involved in Credit Management and Revenue Accounting within the Travel Industry for most of my working life , but decided a couple of years agoI needed a complete change and a challenge and now work as a Business Support Executive and Quality Manager for a Business Travel Management Company based in Woking – although I now live in North Essex where I’ve now bought a house by the “seaside” and am living life to the full.
I’m bestest friends with Ria from the Hague so visit her in Holland as much as I can – working in the Travel Industry has its benefits! On my trips there we often venture out to Roman sites within Holland and Germany and have been known to spend hours and hours in Museums……………………….
I am also a member of Colchester Roman Society.
