I am resident in Somerset West about 40km east of Cape Town South Africa.

I served in the SA Navy from 1972 - 1974, principally aboard SAS Jan Van Riebeeck, an ex RN W class destroyer that was launched in 1944 and saw service in the Atlantic and Far East as HMS Wessex.

I live alone with a delightful, slightly warped feline known as Missy aka She Who Must Be obeyed and my Co-builder..

I am a member of IPMS CAPE PENINSULA and serve on the club committee and for my sins has been the Newsletter Editor for the past 2 years
