I'm a 70 year old English expatriate who has lived in Australia for 46 years. After a variety of occupations, I reinvented myself as a social worker at the end of the last century, and my only regret is that I didn't make the change sooner. I have always been a voracious reader, now I'm developing a real interest in writing in a number of genres. I would like to thank Hatsuda for introducing me to WdC and I think I will thoroughly enjoy the experience.
