About Me
- brian in the tamar valley
- Lives in a traditional Cornish cottage in the Tamar Valley. Passions include Cornwall, Devon, the Environment, History, Heritage, wildlife, a variety of music (especially when played on a hammered dulcimer). Actively involved with Calstock Parish Local History Group, East Cornwall Mining History Association, Friends of the Tamar Valley. Wants to know the truth about the death of Dr David Kelly. Independent minded, hates being drawn along by the crowd. Dislikes hypocrisy. Not affiliated to any religion or political party. Hopes when his time is up people might think "he wasn't such a bad chap after all!"
