He was responsible for the National Coal Board slogan "Come home to a real fire". Following this, he taught English at Diss Grammar School for three years. In 1968, he bought Walnut Tree Farm, a semi-ruined Elizabethan moated farmhouse on the edge of Mellis Common, near Diss in Suffolk, which he rebuilt and developed over many years and where he lived until his death from a brain tumour. This had first been diagnosed only four months previously.
