Still campaigning for a fairer society, peace and less greed. At least trying to do my bit. Happy and content within myself. Proud of my Children, who are now all adults and living independently. Recently Joined Voluntary Conservation group. Joined Walk for Health group in the North Warwickshire area - 2008. Enjoy being involved with Charities and working against prejudice. Also having fun, a laugh and a pint or two of real ale! Many fun jobs and hobbies over the years, including being a local DJ, playing local Football, Potholing and Motocross / Racing.

And because of my background in Economics, I hope to contribute to future debates on global capitalism and related matters in future blogs. So that is now done and dusted. Ivor Timson March 2011.
