I took early retirement in 2010, after a career spent in IT, Quality Assurance and Process Improvement, latterly with Vodafone UK, at their headquarters in Newbury, Berks.
I then took up a second career as a Public Speaker/Performer, and to date have delivered over 1,000 talks/performances, to such groups as Womens' Institutes, Townswomens' Guild, U3As, Probus, Rotary, Inner Wheel, Civil Service Retirement Groups, etc.
