Employment History & Experience
As a child I acted with my mother Jean Anderson (nee Eynstone) who was a welll known Shakesperean and all round radio and TV actress in Scotland in the 1940's and 50's including home service broadcasts of "Whiskey Galore" and "Keep the home fires burning" her father Frank Eynstone also performed a great deal of Radio and some TV in Scotland, he brought on a very youn Richard Wilson in the early 1950's!
However when we moved from Scotland I went to English boarding school, and my interests moved to music. Firstly I played piano, but then moved to guitar and I have been playing guitar since 1963, I supported many of the top bands and singers in West London in the early 60's, and have many stories to tell. The move from Scotland to English left me with a BBC accent, as well as being able to slip into the Scottish vernacular!! I am a retired accountant and have a wish to do a little acting in my latter years.

From 1980 to 1985 various pop groups on the midlands working mens club circuits, and from 1986 to 1990 trying to record my own music and create an independent LP, my accounting career interfered too much.
