Born late WW2. Originally from Oz, then Boston and NY as a little child. Parents from NY and London. Served in Malaysia, Singapore, and Australia with Air Force and Army. Fairly widely travelled elsewhere. Love Big Band orchestras and swing music, also much classical music. Now old and arthritic, but brain still seems to work, thank God.
