Autorenporträt
The author is in his eighty-fifth year and was employed by Barclays Bank for forty years. He retired from the Bank at a relatively early age and has lived in Hampshire since moving down from Essex to Southampton in 1963. Sadly his wife has suffered from semantic dementia for the past twelve years and has been in a care home for the last eighteen months. Until the pandemic he enjoyed golf, gardening and watching his five grandsons playing competitive sports. Hopefully those pleasures will soon return.
