About - Kirtle

I'm "Kirtle" a poor sobriquet for an adult and If I'd thought about it beforehand I'd have chosen a better name. I'm a 'retired' Social Worker after working 30 years in the field. I was a practitioner and Team Manager in adult social services in England and have lived around England. No longer registered with the professional body.

My main interests are an undergraduate focus on Roman history, culture and art after a detour through Christianity and an MA in 17th studies. By nature a Monarchist and a liberal with an acceptance of ambiguity and situations and ideas that don't quite go together. I grew up in England, and later spent two years in Malta, in the Southern Mediterranean, with two extra years spent in the Canary islands of Spain.

Not quite sure about being retired although time away in France makes it hard to think how I'd work.
