You will be able to read in my Author biography

I am the eldest of six children, and that my father was one of the Bawdsey Manor radar pioneers. Indeed he worked in radar all of his life at what was once known as the Royal Radar Establishment in Malvern, which is why I grew up in the town of Malvern. As the majority of his work was secret, he could never talk about it, nor did he. But he was also passionately interested in railways, both full-sized and model, and had collected ay great deal of model railway equipment. So when he passed away, we were left with the job of deciding what to do with all of it and one of my brothers said "why do we not renovate the exhibition layout?" To cut a very Long story short we did indeed do just that and now exhibit the vintage model railway, now known as Templeford, approximately twice a year and it will indeed be going to Bristol to the Bristol Model Railway exhibition held at Thornbury Leisure centre on the 28th, 29th and 30th of April. Chloe's Extraordinary Telescope actually makes little mention of railways, except that Chloe does at one stage use the sight of a steam engine to check the veracity of the date that the telescope is suggesting. The photo below shows just one of the many photos taken of the layout, in this case at the Wimbledon exhibition in 2016. My dad gave me much encouragement with my writing and read many of my stories, long before they were published.
