My home town of Penge is situated in South East London. From here there are easy transport links to central London (direct trains to Victoria and London Bridge train stations with less than half an hour journey time). The nearest seaside resorts are Brighton and Hastings (approximately 60 miles or so by road).

Art, literature and music are just a few areas and passions in my life that could easily absorb my time for hours on end without a second thought. The world needs more art, more literature and more music! In my estimation the government should (or should that be must!) do away with money to help trade goods and services, and replace it with another more meaningful and creative currency, namely: Art, Literature and Music!! The more it is produced, shared and enjoyed, the richer our lives will be. (Do I hear a universal, “AMEN!”)

If art be the food of love… give me excess of it

OK, I’ll contribute with an homage to my home town, Penge:
