Born in Hampton Court (not the Palace) and lived my early life in Surbiton having a great childhood there, lots of fun times. Moving around the UK and then to Australia Perth for 10 years I loved and miss the beaches, then spent a year in California and cruising home, do I miss the blue skies yes, do I miss the very hot weather no... I started writing children's books with Samantha my daughter when I lived in Australia. When she was sad, I would make her laugh about all the naughty things her boys were doing...one day she said 'Mum you should write these down'...I laughed and said no-one would be interested, so that is when we started, I moved back to the UK living in a lovely place called Farnham, where I spend a lot of time in Costa or singing with Rock Choir...although I cannot sing, but the others make me sound great what a rush!
