About Steve

I was born in Birmingham in 1960 (19th October for those who wish to send cards or gifts) and grew up in Rugby. From 1979 to 2005 I lived in Cambridge, apart from a couple of years working in London, and another couple, much later, in Espoo, Finland. Having worked for 4 years in Waltham Abbey as a Curate in the Church of England I am now Team Vicar in the Papworth Team Ministry in south-west Cambridgeshire.

I have an ongoing education, which has so far included Rugby School, Downing College, the Open University and Ridley Hall theological college. I have had some jobs, including one at Nokia, and when I've finished at Waltham Abbey, all other things being equal, I will have some more jobs with the Church of England.

I have been married to Janice since September 1988.

I am interested in many things including ....
 * Christianity
 * Literature, especially:
 * Charles Dickens
 * Jane Austen
 * William Gibson
 * Terry Pratchett
 * Tolkien


 * Beer (especially Fullers' London Pride)
 * Railways
 * The environment
 * Photography
 * Languages
 * Classical Music

Wikipedia contributions New articles Downing College, Jean Sibelius, Mikael Agricola, Moomin, North Norfolk Railway, John Polkinghorne, Porvoo, Ridley Hall, Rugby School, Savonlinna, Tampere, Tove Jansson, Turku, V5 And my big project: Finnish language, Finnish language grammar, Finnish language spoken, Finnish language phonetics and all the offshoots. There's still a fair bit of me in these pages despite the welcome help of other contributors.
