About Me
- A Broad Abroad
- I moved to turkey 8 years ago after my ( second) divorce. After working for 25years I think I deserved a rest. I came here to indulge my passion for sailing but I started, with a Turkish friend, a local paper just for fun. When I stopped my proper job in England I took a teaching qualification and also worked in local politics ( for the lib dems , I felt sorry for them!) so I like to keep busy and now I write for local and national papers occasionally .I still have a house in the Uk and get back there from time to time, but the weather, the media driven blame culture and east enders irritate me more and more. I miss the theatre, the cinema, a variety of food and shopping though. I love to travel to new places . In Turkey, which I adore, I spend my time playing with the tourists in summer, and I recently bought a small yacht so I get to sail a lot. In the winter I paint (just found oils) watch dvd’s, walk my dog , take in stray cats (4 at the mo) , and fend off loitering boat captains.
