After spending four years as a Methodist minister in East Anglia and Derbyshire he was invited to specialise in education which occupied him for the next twenty five years.

He taught World Religions in Stamore and then in Knottingley before gaining a degree in Computer Studies which brought a change of subject in his career. He retired from teaching computer literacy in 1997. His hobbies included reading, puzzles, magic and illusions, acting in AmDram groups and 63 years playing church organs until his sight failed. He is now Vice-Chairman of Moulton Players in Northampton where he is frequently on stage acting in various roles.
