Born in Newcastle NSW – at the end of the Baby boomer era – Apprenticeship at “The Gabba” when Dennis Lillee and Thommo ruled the pitch. When a young Kerry Packer decided to change all the rules of cricket and introduce the One-day concept. – Boy, have things changed since then! –

I have been fortunate to work in some of the world’s most exotic places, including Vietnam, the Caribbean, Papua New Guinea and all over Australia with the “Southern Pacific Hotel Corporation”
