“I'm a keen hiker, wood-worker, naturalist, illustrator, designer and general bounder. I like whisky (who doesn't?).

“My day job as a Senior Natural History and Geology Curator sees me giving lectures and talks, creating labels for exhibitions, writing books and leading events throughout the county of Norfolk.

“I enjoy wearing early to mid-century pattern clothing whilst traipsing about the countryside (and my wife humours me in taking pictures of me in 1970s catalogue-style poses).

“I'm a long-time beard wearer - initially because I looked young and it made me look older and therefore have a little more gravitas at work!

“I more-often-than-not have a stiffly waxed moustache to my Full-Set. My wife and family love my beard and I wouldn't change it for the world.”
