Phil at Cambridge folk festival

Work I work for a hedge fund. There, I’ve said it. Actually, I’m proud of my company – its people, its culture, its heritage. But you won’t find me talking about it here.

Home I married the incomparable May Sproston (“Moodle”, “Mavis”, “Sprozzer”) in 2005. Wilfred Turner (“Wilfie”, “Munchkin”, “Naughty”) arrived on Easter Sunday 2009. We live in Wandsworth, south London, near to where May grew up. I grew up in Buxton, Derbyshire.

He's a munchkin!
