About Us
Just so you can put faces to names, this is us!
Feel free to email us.
Maggie accompanies Chris on L7C trips and sprints and occasionally joins Chris at L7C club meetings at the North Kent meet, the
Kent & East Sussex meet and the Weald meet.
We have also toured for many thousands of miles in France, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Austria,
Italy and Andorra as well as all over the UK and have made so many friends over the years, it is fair to say a lot of our social life now
revolves around the Seven and our 'sevening' friends. We do, however, have other interests: Chris belongs to a local clay
pigeon shooting club and a table tennis club and plays in a local pub darts team at The Runt in Tun.
He has also taught himself how to read drum music and enjoys playing his Roland V-Drums at home for fun.
We retired in July 2021, Chris having worked as an Accountant for 25 years, decided he needed a mid-life crisis and retrained
as a Driving Instructor in 2004. Maggie worked in various PA roles in London for 30 years, was then Office Manager within
the private jet world at Biggin Hill Airport in Kent for 10 years and for the remaining few years before retirement, worked in various
local temporary roles as a PA/Administrator. Having lived in Orpington, Kent for 16 years, we moved to Heathfield in East Sussex in 2014.
Retirement is great!
Maggie enjoys singing with Hailsham Voices Community Pop Choir, writes articles for the Heathfield
Magazine, our local community magazine and has also self-published three books on Amazon: more recently, her book
'Poems on Everyday Life' with lighthearted poems she has written on a range of subjects from the seasons, to
sports, general pastimes, life events and many other topics on everyday life.
As mentioned on the Home page, Maggie self-published her book
'What! No Windscreen?' detailing 25 years' ownership of our Caterham 7, including many photos from touring, sprinting and other motorsport events
we have attended during that time and, a few years ago, a personal memoir entitled
'Coming to Terms', covering the period from when her Mum was diagnosed with a brain tumour at the age of 63, to when she passed away three months later.
We also both like watching many sports including football, cricket and motor racing, attending local quiz evenings and completing crosswords on a daily basis!
