About Me

Originally, I trained as chef (that feels like it was at least 400 years ago) and I still love to cook. I’m a vegetarian but trust me that doesn’t mean the veggie food is dull in any way. I make bread, patisserie, fresh pasta, curries both Thai and Indian and I never open a jar for anything and make everything from scratch. My main interest is music, I have been a musician for many years and I am currently taking grade 8 for cello. I also sing, I’m a tenor, and have played the guitar for many years although that has fallen by the wayside as my interest in the cello has increased. I read often and have eclectic tastes. I really love Irish music and my favourite is Christy Moore. I also like the Pogues, The Dubliners, Ronnie Drew and Luke Kelly. In 2016 I went on trip to Ireland and went all over this fantastic country. I went from Dublin to the Giants Causeway, from Ennis to the Cliffs of Moher and took in Blarney Castle, Bunratty Castle with its folk village and lots of other places in-between. The Irish are a warm, engaging, friendly people with a rich culture and if you haven’t been I can heartily recommend this wonderful place. I will definitely go back to Ireland and explore some more of this wonderful country.
