Freelance Video production is an amazing pleasure, the way in which it can help the marketing and business communications of any business – I have an appetite for variety – have done all my life. But that’s a big plus if you use my services.
Every day is a new day; I’m always fresh and excited, always ready for any challenge.
Brief Bio
Childhood:
Born Cromer, Norfolk.
Don’t remember a lot: I was told off for pulling tail off rocking horse when I started school (4 years old), missed the school bus and walked 1-mile home on my 5th birthday, everyone was waiting for me, or were they really waiting for jelly and blancmange? Last time I was there, June 2010, hardly anything had changed, though everything seem much smaller than I recall!
Age 5
Moved to Luton, Bedfordshire.
Junior School, Wolf Cubs, Bike Rides, Wardown Park Lake for sticklebacks, First girlfriend, Rosa Brown.
Age 11
Moved to Newgate Street, Hertfordshire.
I’m just a country boy! Running through fields and woods, listening to 45’s always with Mick, best mate, or Jennifer, first love. She dumped me when I was 15, she went off with John, he was 3 years older and had a Lambretta, with lots of lights and an aerial – I was desolate, but she made the right choice, they’re still together, sans Lambretta.
And then?
Left school, left Newgate Street, learnt to hitch hike, spent a few years saying things like “Far Out Man” , busking badly, and spreading peace and love to the best of my ability, got married, split up, met Julia, lost Julia, wonder what she’s doing now? I even saw England win the World Cup.
Over the next several years I hit the highs, had four children, hit the lows when the 90’s recession bit my bum along with a few creditors, but in those days you paid your debts, and I did too.

It’s a brilliant life, so far, just out of my third (and final) marriage, four children, five grandchildren – I’ve tasted fame (received mail addressed to Alan Howarth, England) I’ve tasted failure (collapse of one business and three marriages) but I’ve never given up, cos’ I’m an optimistic kind of guy . . . . . . and I’ve still got A Head Full of Ideas.
