A composer is a guy who goes around forcing his will on unsuspecting air molecules, often with the assistance of unsuspecting musicians.

About Me
- Still Breathing
- I live in the suburbs of London with my wife; both our 2 grown up children are recently married and now live nearby. My wife, daughter, son-in-law and I attend St George The Martyr Church, Shirley (http://www.stgeorgeschurch.co.uk/) where we help out the choir on special occasions and I chord bash a guitar for the parade services when slightly different music is used. Our son is a youth worker at a local non-denominational church so we are all involved in local churches. My wife and I sing in the snappily named Bromley Youth Music Trust Adult Choir. I love good music of all types (yes – I know that is subjective). The only way to keep a car on the road is for me to service it! Unfortunately chest conditions have stopped me running and keeping fit. I would describe myself as a radical evangelical who spends a lot of time trying to get my fellow Christians to THINK!!! I’m dyslexic but my wonderful children have shown me up by going to Cambridge University. People tend to think of me as frivolous because I see the funny side of everything – even the most serious subjects. To me not to see the fun in life would be to deny the way God made me.
