I've been a general builder since mid 70's when I arrived in the UK from South Africa.
Now at the stage of trying to do what I enjoy and invest in opportunities that excite me. I think they call it retirement. Learned some great skills from people I've worked with but now looking to be more self reliant and get rid of stress associated with running a building company.
In the process of converting my Builders Store into a joinery workshop. Loads to get rid of and pass on.
Discovering bits and bobs I stashed away for a rainy day many many years ago including some wonderful bits of timber I forgot I had.
I love motorcycles (some more than others) and being in nature. I hope to make 'small things' that involve learning new processes and fine detailing and where I can happily work on my own. Getting back on the tools in a sense.
Not to say I don't enjoy the company of like-minded men. But its time to do my thing now and not feel that its all about production and efficiency.
