Biography: I am a lifelong Londoner with a background in social science. After taking a degree in Sociology at Bedford College, University of London, I enjoyed a long career designing social surveys and analysing their results. When I retired I capitalised on my enthusiasm and affection for London by becoming a Blue Badge Guide. My guiding style is engaging, informative and entertaining. My favourite topics are history and architecture but I am equally at home talking about paintings, shopping or the royal family.
