INTERESTS

I have been interested in mechanics from a very young age. Some of my projects include,

Fitting a new cylinder head on a diesel fiesta,

Extensive body repairs including rust removal and welding to a mini along with eventual engine change.

Some re-wiring on my mini’s electrical system

 

Since March 1996 I have been engaged in part time volunteer preaching work with the local congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses. This accounts for around 18 hours per week and is the reason I work part time secularly.
