Since finishing my temporary contract with the Salvation Army in July last year I have been enjoying my new status of being semi-retired. I still do a few hours paid work for the NHS each month as an Independent Contractor, and some voluntary work with homeless people through my Church, and I provide a Dad's Taxi Service for my daughters, but otherwise my time is my own. It is however taking some getting used to this new status and I am filling my days with walking, swimming and cycling to get fit, and Indie Publishing. Nearly two years ago I published my late father's daily war diary, together with his original drawings and photographs and last month I was able to donate a copy of this book to the Imperial War Museum library in London. I am currently working on a novel my father wrote called 'After Sundown' based loosely on his experiences as a white settler and Architect in Kenya after the end of the Second World War which I hope to publish at Easter. Then I plan to publish a book on family genealogy and a photo book of my father's wartime illustrations. Along with summer holiday planning, enough to keep me busy!
