During spare time (rare these days) you’ll find me exploring backcountry rivers with a fly rod, or out on the boat catching dinner. I also enjoy gardening, reading biographies and cleaning the car. My hobbies may resemble those of a baby boomer but I’m okay with that.

Exploring the Mackenzie basin in search of fly fishing spots.

‘Tina Tuna’ delivers the freshest fish tacos in Manly, and also provides great Sunday arvo beers for the lads - simply the best.

The dahlia farm coming to life.

My favourite NZ stay, The Lindis. A honeymoon dream spot. The fly fishing is good also.

The ‘79 911, freshly cut & polished. My wife calls it ‘the pool’ because the funds set aside for a swimming pool are currently “invested”.
