Joined 28 July 2016

Studies in history and theology with a CertEd thrown in led to a career in education and the Church. My trundling around Wikipedia reflects other interests too; architecture, art, cinema, literature, music, theatre... I'm also a paid up member of the Grammar Police, with a particular loathing of the "present historic" tense and a burning desire to promote subject – verb agreement.

Where in the world..? edit

I travelled a bit in my younger days - for better or for worse
"Thanks, but I shan't hurry back..." "Great for a visit but wouldn't want to live here..." "I could stay here forever..."

         
         

           
         

     
     

Handy links edit

This MOS is akin to Holy Scripture.
And this is a handy crib.
