About Me
Born April 1952 in the "steel town" of Motherwell in the West of Scotland. I attended Our Lady's High School, Motherwell before going up to the University of Glasgow, initially to study Medicine but I changed course somewhat and ended up teaching High School Chemistry and Biology before having to retire aged 44 years because of serious ill-health. Now (as I write, 11 years later) in much finer fettle, I contribute feature/comment articles on a freelance basis to the Catholic press in both Scotland and, just since recently, in England and Wales. Married for 27 years to a nurse, I have four supposedly adult children: a 27 year old daughter, a nurse like her mother in the same speciality (care of the elderly); a 24 year son, a postgrad Chemistry student at St Andrews University; a 22 year old daughter doing Hons History at Strathclyde University; and, a 20 year old son doing Hons Philosophy at Stirling University. I support the Famous Glasgow Celtic and the families of several local innkeepers!
