| | Midnight-owl  | I am married with four grown up children and twelve grandchildren. I am a linguist, but have recently changed my discipline to Music, so that I can continue to teach after retirement. My main instrument is the piano, but I also teach clarinet and saxophone. My favourite instrument is the organ and I have served as a church organist since 1980. Apart from my church work, I am work with various animal advocacy organizations, to help combat the tidal wave of animal cruelty that is sweeping the world. I am not an extremist by any means. I love all animals, but cannot actually keep any because of allergies, but that does not prevent me working on their behalf to improve their welfare. My other great love is flowers.
