About Me
Childhood on a dairy farm. Left when I learnt to hitchhike (16yo). Travelled all over NZ when 17 and seen a large part of the world since. Worked for about 20 years in all the hardest jobs possible (rigging, brickies labouring, scaffolding, shearing sheds etc etc all over Australia) before setting up a computer training business in 1995 (didnt know how to use one) Lasted 8 years and got out because I didnt enjoy it. Last 5 years dedicated to community work and a little share trading. Wonderful partner of 24 years and 3 boys aged 22, 15 and 13 All fit, very well mannered and supportive.
