About Richard

I love the outdoors, especially hiking and camping when I get the chance.

I’m more into berg than beach or bush.Since I was a child I’ve always been interested in design and technology, and anything unusual.

A few years ago I coached the Lego robotics team that won the national FLL League competition 3 years running.

I’m also a geocacher and was surprised how many hams are also geocachers.

So many things to do, and so little time…
