I am male, British, born 1957, and a professional journalist. Principally a magazine editor, I have also worked in corporate publishing and on daily newspapers. I am reasonably knowledgeable about leisure sailing (particularly Mediterranean and Caribbean), and have writing and/or editing experience in the fields of computing, photography, cookery, cross stitching and poker – an improbable combination! I also compile specialist subject crosswords. I am a Leicester City supporter.
