I am an old hippy but young at heart!I am 73, my wife Nikki is 36.We were married on 10th April 2009.I have long hair, & 'fuzzy' sideburns,wear bright kaftans, stand out in a crowd,& have an infectious sense of humour .My zany sense of humour is clear in my children's book series,'Tales of Widgeripoo'.Jimmy Perry urged me to get them published as books after seeing them in a local magazine. Nikki and I have featured in several magazines, and on TV due to our 'age gap' relationship. I have done radio broadcasting about my environmental work & childrens books on BBC 3 Counties Radio,Hertbeat FM and Capital Radio, as well as finding interesting & amusing snippets in the national papers. See my video clips. I write songs with my friend Aitch. One of our songs is on Star Now, sung by Nikki & I. I also have a talent for mimicking UK & American accents,and have done voices for cartoon films.Listen to my audio clips. My tenth book, 'The Saints In Paradise' was published in October 2009
