I'm a former public servant, retiring after 32 years with the Australian government ten years ago.
My wife and I migrated to the UK afterwards, and we since both teach at the moment at Coventry University, she in Microbiology, and me in Law.
We live in Rugby (where the game came from in Warwickshire) almost dead centre in the middle of England. We live with a 3 year old Zuchon (half-shitzu half Bichon) dog called Simba.
It really doesn't matter what he's called, he doesn't come anyway!
Strange as it may sound, Tony is married to a microbiologist who suggested he write a story, and since he'd always wanted to write SF since he was a kid, here it is — possibly influenced by the works of Isaac Asimov.
