Yes indeed, it was Christmas 1986 when I gave up gainful employment at our National Library… to be happy. A desk job amongst sleepy archives just didn’t suit this restless romantic. But who would have thought then that life ‘on-the-road’ would take me so far…? In and out of the airports of North America, back and forth along the motorways of Europe, or across the wide red lands of Australia under her broad blue skies, even right around the world once… and all of it with a six-foot Welsh Triple Harp in tow!
