| Info | I was born in London in 1954. My family moved down to Bournemouth in 1956, and we lived in San Remo Towers in Boscombe for a few years. I went to St. Paul's Primary School in St. Paul's Road Lansdowne (where Asda is now). In 1965 my family moved back up to London and I went to St. Marylebone Grammar school. My main interests even in those days were antiques, jewellery and art and I was a regular visitor even at that young age to all of London's museums and art gallery's. In 1971 at the age of 17 we all moved back down to Bournemouth and I attended Bournemouth Technical College where I studied history and Poole Technical College where I studied business studies.
In 1972 I got a job at Russell's antiques on Richmond Hill Bournemouth and was taught the antiques and Fine Art business by Geoffrey Russell one of the best and most Knowledgeable antiques dealers in Bournemouth. In 1976 I opened my first antiques shop in Pokesdown and travelled all over the country buying and selling, eventually importing antiques from France and Jade from China. In 1982 I sold my business and dealt privately buying and selling antiques, jade and jewellery to people all over the world, specialising in French furniture, Dresden and Meissen, porcelain, French clocks, etc. In 1988 I opened a jewellers shop in Westover road and at one time we were the largest jeweller in Westover road. I closed the shop in 1993 when the lease was at an end and the Landlord wanted a 150% increase on the rent, so I know all about the struggles facing small business people! By 1996 I opened another business selling alternative gifts in the Sovereign Centre which I sold on 1st November this year.
I met my wife Belinda in 1993 and we were married in 1998, and had a son, Joziah In April 2002 and we live happily in Grove road, East Cliff.
I joined UKIP this year as I have been so totally appalled at the take-over of this country by the E.U., and had the honour of being accepted as West Bournemouth's candidate for the next General Election. I will fight long and hard for as long as it takes for the great people of this Great Country to get their independence back. I take great pride in being part of the only party that is telling the British people the truth about the European Union and want to take votes from all the parties who have been involved in this deceit for the past 30 years. To quote Tony Blair in the Sedgefield Election Campaign 1983 "We'll negotiate a withdrawal from the EEC, which has drained our national resources and destroyed jobs" Vote for UKIP in 2005 and begin to get our Country back from the E.U..
