Now retired from University work, my interests and expertise are varied, but focus generally around the idea of motivating and empowering people. I engage with my original studies in Old Testament Studies, in world religions, multicultural issues, children's literature, Education Studies, steam railways, plants and gardens amongst others. My general blog is added to regularly, the others have an historic interest
