Having lived a life that includes National Service, Mountain Rescue, and a career in General and Psychiatric Nursing, combined with a life of pot holing, mountain climbing and travelling the world, whilst slipping in a marathon or two, it is safe to say that Ted has seen the best and the worst of people and life.Using his own personal experiences and observations that span his 76 years, these poems and rhymes contain some deep emotions, and at times great humour. His observations of day to day life will touch you deeply, or make you smile as you journey through what is the delightful collection of a wordsmith wandering.
