The Acorn Folk Club John Moore (1949 - 1956) and his wife Eileen (HW Girl's Grammar) founded The Acorn Folk Club in Minehead and John produced an excellent website for their club. Unfortunately John died very suddenly in March 2005, but his wife Eileen is carrying on the running of this most excellent club. I was very pleased to have been asked by Eileen to assist her with the maintenance of the website. There is an Obituary to John of the Acorn Folk Club website

BMC Chess Magazine is edited by John Saunders, who produced his 1967 school photograph referred to earlier on this page.

John Owen Smith writes a highly entertaining blog.

Since retiring my wife and I take lots of walks with a local group. Devon is a wonderful county and extremely photogenic. One of my hobbies is to set slideshows to music on DVDs. You can see some samples here

The Scratching Post The Scratching Post (cat rescue) is a cat rescue charity, based in Cheshunt/Geoffs Oak (Hertfordshire), but covering a much wider area.

Walking in Devon.   Since my wife and I retired we have walked the coasts and moors of Devon with our local National Trust Walking Group. Being a keen photo snapper, I have kept a photographic record of our walks and made some videos. Have a look to see what we have enjoyed.
