Recent Anse Marcel reviews
"Accommodations, furnishings, and service great. Stephane and staff very gracious and willing to assist in every way possible. Interesting the service is levels-above what you generally experience in France! Because you are on a resort cut off from access to the local surroundings, expect to pay a premium for meals and food. Some of the facilities on-resort are better values than others. Le Domaine has just opened a beach cabana bar that is very good and a fair value. AVOID "La Table du Marche", an-on site restaurant that's astronomical in price and mediocre at best. Consider renting a car on-site for a very reasonable rate. Stock up at one of the two local "supermarche's" and prepare in your very well furnished kitchen. One day's worth of groceries will more than pay for the rental car. The jet ski tour, while costly, is two-hours long, beautiful, and worth every penny- do it!"Guest: Dan Date of Stay: February 2014 Review Submitted: April 3, 2014View listing
"We enjoyed our stay at this wonderfully well-maintained and up to date decorated condo in secure Anse Marcel. The listing photos reflected the real appearance of the condo. The quiet setting of the little sitting area in the back garden was wonderful to enjoy breakfast or an evening cocktail. The proximity to Anse Marcel beach and the Marina's restaurants and shops was very convenient. It is also close to Orient Bay (5 minutes) and larger stores for groceries, pharmacy and supplies (5 minutes) and also other restaurants in the Cul-de-Sac area. Marie-France was most helpful with answering any questions we had. We would certainly go back."Guest: NB Date of Stay: February 2014 Review Submitted: March 26, 2014View listing
"A big group of us attending a wedding at the Raddison Blu below rented the villa for the week. We had such an amazing time. The location, for us, could not have been better, 5 minutes to the hotel, 7 to the beach. The beach access was never an issue and we used the beach freely despite not being hotel guests. The stove was broken when we got to the house but it was promptly attended to and fixed within 2 days. The kitchen was stocked with food, drinks and alcohol when we arrived and the housekeeper came everyday and kept the place in tip top shape. We had a dinner party 1 night with 25 guests and the villa was plenty big enough, with enough plates and silverwear to easily feed and drink everyone. Were we ever to have a reason to be on the island again we wouldn't hesitate to rent the villa! Amazing experience."Guest: Lisa S. Date of Stay: June 2014 Review Submitted: June 30, 2014View listing
"My husband and I arrived at this beautiful villa for the 2nd week of our 2 week vacation stay in June 2013. Joelle had left a note for us to call, as she didn't know what time to expect us. She arrived right away, and showed us through the fantastic villa, explaining everything as she went. She very thoughtfully stocked the fridge with all of the essentials, which came in very handy. We loved the incredible views, and the villa was simply magnificent. The pool with the lights that changed colors was quite a surprise as well. The openness of the villa was great, and since the gate was locked, we just left everything open, even at night. The kitchen was well stocked, though I would suggest the addition of a blender (more of an American thing, as we like our frozen drinks). Shower was incredible, and all linens, etc. were good quality. Our only issues were that we had problems with the safe now working, and were not made aware of the location of the washer/dryer, so we did not get to use either. Joelle and Tony's granddaughter was sick and in the hospital at the time, so we did not want to bother them to ask. Looking forward to another great stay as soon as possible. Thank you again for your hospitality!"Guest: DeLinda G. Date of Stay: June 2014 Review Submitted: July 14, 2014View listing

Originally written on Football Extra Points | Last updated 11/18/14
In an earlier article of mine I stated that I expected the Buffalo Bills to keep their $62 million investment, Ryan Fitzpatrick. Obviously, I was wrong. Yet, in light of the inconsistent play the Bills received from the Harvard guy, I would have never imagined that Bills management would put them in the same position once again. Lo and behold they threw out another puzzling contract to a just as unpredictable quarterback, Kevin Kolb. It's one thing to give a guy a contract that can stay on the field (Fitzpatrick played in 32 games the past two seasons.) It's an entirely different situation to give a contract to a guy who played half as many games in the same amount of time. Kolb's contract is set to max out at $13 million for two seasons and while quarterbacks are seeing big paydays throughout the league it's difficult for me to understand paying Kevin Kolb this much. Kolb's average yearly salary of $6.5 million puts him around the 22nd highest paid quarterback in the ...

Human Nature's Pathologist
By CARL ZIMMER - NEW YORK TIMES
Added: Mon, 28 Nov 2011 19:08:02 UTC
Steven Pinker was a 15-year-old anarchist. He didn't think people needed a police force to keep the peace. Governments caused the very problems they were supposed to solve.
Besides, it was 1969, said Dr. Pinker, who is now a 57-year-old psychologist at Harvard. "If you weren't an anarchist," he said, "you couldn't get a date."
At the dinner table, he argued with his parents about human nature. "They said, 'What would happen if there were no police?' " he recalled. "I said: 'What would we do? Would we rob banks? Of course not. Police make no difference.' "
This was in Montreal, "a city that prided itself on civility and low rates of crime," he said. Then, on Oct. 17, 1969, police officers and firefighters went on strike, and he had a chance to test his first hypothesis about human nature.
"All hell broke loose," Dr. Pinker recalled. "Within a few hours there was looting. There were riots. There was arson. There were two murders. And this was in the morning that they called the strike."
The '60s changed the lives of many people and, in Dr. Pinker's case, left him deeply curious about how humans work. That curiosity turned into a career as a leading expert on language, and then as a leading advocate of evolutionary psychology. In a series of best-selling books, he has argued that our mental faculties — from emotions to decision-making to visual cognition — were forged by natural selection.
He has also become a withering critic of those who would deny the deep marks of evolution on our minds — social engineers who believe they can remake children as they wish, modernist architects who believe they can rebuild cities as utopias. Even in the 21st century, Dr. Pinker argues, we ignore our evolved brains at our own peril.
Given this track record, Dr. Pinker's newest book, published in October, struck some critics as a jackknife turn. In "The Better Angels of Our Nature" (Viking), he investigates one of the most primal aspects of life: violence.
Over the course of 802 pages, he argues that violence has fallen drastically over thousands of years — whether one considers homicide rates, war casualties as a percentage of national populations, or other measures.
This may seem at odds with evolutionary psychology, which is often seen as an argument for hard-wired Stone Age behavior, but Dr. Pinker sees that view as a misunderstanding of the science. Our evolved brains, he argues, are capable of a wide range of responses to their environment. Under the right conditions, they can allow us to live in greater and greater peace.
"The Better Angels of Our Nature" is full of the flourishes that Dr. Pinker's readers have come to expect. He offers gruesomely delightful details about cutting off noses and torturing heretics. Like his other popular books, starting with "The Language Instinct" (1994), it is a far cry from his first published works in the late 1970s — esoteric reports from his graduate work at Harvard, with titles like "The Representation and Manipulation of Three-Dimensional Space in Mental Images."

In front of a packed crowd during his panel titled "My Two Years with Dawkins, Christ and a Small Crab Called Eric" at Comic-Con International in San Diego, artist, writer and indie filmmaker Dave McKean recounted two recent life events on radically opposite ends of the philosophical spectrum: an all-ages book he illustrated with scientist and Atheism proponent Richard Dawkins called "The Magic of Reality," and a film he shot starring Michael Sheen in Port Talbot, Wales called "The Gospel of Us," a modern day interpretation of "The Passion" story chronicling Jesus Christ's final days of life on Earth.
Doctor Science - Obsidian Wings Comments
Last weekend I noticed two religion blogs, one Jewish and one evangelical (though not fundamentalist) Christian, discussing the same passages in the Bible: the ones commanding the Israelites to fight, slaughter, enslave, and dispossess the Canaanite inhabitants of the Land of Israel. To commit genocide, in fact.

Question: I've been enjoying the insights into the early Hannibal Lecter and Norman Bates on Hannibal and Bates Motel. I know that both shows are just based on the original works and can certainly invent stories for the characters. However, I expect the TV series to at least honor the future stories that we're so familiar with. What I mean: Bates Motel is terrific at bringing young Norman along where we can understand the Norman in Psycho and how he got that way. The taxidermy and now the blackouts are both critical, as is the relationship with Mother. However, I was very upset that they killed off Dr. Chilton in Hannibal since he is an important character in the novels. We can accept that what we see in Jack, Will, Bloom, Lounds, etc. are consistent (genders aside) with what we see later in Red Dragon and Silence of the Lambs. But now, there is no place for Chilton in the future stories. Am I out of line and the only one who has complained? — Jerome

Question: From the moment Cyrus elected (pun intended) not to let anyone else in on the bomb threat to the final silliness of Olivia and Jake wending skyward on daddy's jet, the Scandal finale was all the usual over-the-top perfection Gladiators have come to love and expect from Shonda Rhimes when she's operating at the top of her "a little too much is not enough" game. Nice homage to the Keyser Söze reveal from The Usual Suspects at the end. Sorry Columbus Short got offed; perhaps if his character had been given a real reel life I'd miss him more, but that was one of the flaws in the mostly great/outlandish storytelling that truly bugged this fangirl. I know it was a rush from plot point to plot point, but I'm willing to accept the pregnancy as a legitimate excuse for the end-of-season, roller rink stop-and-go, punch in the face/gut action. And what a nice sendoff for Joe Morton! Now let's see how Rhimes gets Olivia back in the game. Who's she gonna play with now? This could be a signal that there are new players, yet to be named. And how in the expletive deleted are they (Ms. Rhimes and Ms. Pope) gonna top that?! — McKenzie

Nature: X-ray tomography on a living frog embryo
X-ray radiographs provide information about internal structures of organisms such as bones. Alternatively, X-rays can image soft tissues throughout early development of vertebrates. A new X-ray method was presented recently in a Nature article published by a German-American-Russian research team. Time-lapse sequences of cellular resolution were obtained of three dimensional reconstructions showing developing embryos of the clawed frog. Instead of absorption of X-rays, the method is based on their diffraction.

Interesting topic.
I studied Tarot many years ago and became quite adept at it. Haven't done a reading in years, though. Sometimes you are better off not knowing something terrible is going to happen to other people you're reading for. I never told them outright. Just gave warning hints or I would just say that I was unable to read the cards at that time, if it was really bad.
The symbolism in the Waite Ryder cards always came through very clearly to me and made learning easy. Now there's an online course, if you're interested: http://www.learntarot.com/rwdesc.htm. Use whatever pack "speaks" to you when you look at the cards. For me, it was the Waite Ryder. Crowley completely creeped me out (I always feel the evil around it when I see it) and most more modern decks seemed too fabricated, devoid of any positive vibrations, for me to make the necessary connection with.
Wonder why this post hasn't been trashed by the Bible Thumpers yet, since they fail to see the great spiritual value in things mystical. Maybe it's because Michael posted it?
Lately it seems we can't have in depth, intelligent conversations about anything that isn't "biblically correct" in their narrow interpretations, according to the King James Version (which God personally dictated to Moses, in the King's English, on Mount Sinai... Sorry, I don't know how to do the purple thing). For a good example of how a post is sabotaged, see my recent post on the secret Fatima letter: http://www.dailypaul.com/299323/frightening-clues-to-the-thi..., which I still think would be of great interest to most of the DP crowd.

Oak Hill Academy is still searching for their first win on the year.
But as the weeks continue, the opponents won't get any easier, including Canton Academy.
The 2-3 Panthers have had an inconsistent season. After starting 0-2, they got their first victory over Hillcrest and went toe-to-toe with Winston Academy, arguably the toughest team in the district.
"They gave Winston a run for their money," Raiders head coach Benjie Merchant said. "Athlete wise they're like Manchester and they play hard."
Hebron Christian's hopes of a district softball title evaporated Tuesday night as Winona Christian scored three runs in the top of the sixth inning to earn a 5-3 victory on the road and take first place into the playoffs which start this weekend.
The Lady Eagles (12-7), who already secured their fifth consecutive playoff appearance a week ago, came back from a 2-0 deficit after giving up a pair of runs in the first inning to tie the game and eventually take the lead.
"We just got out played," Hebron head coach Cass Tapley said.
The West Point High School swimming team had another good meet in the pool last Saturday, this time in Oxford including three top-ten finishes in their second meet of the season.
In all, 16 schools were represented from around the state.
"Overall, the majority of our swimmers had a faster time this meet than they did their very first meet two weeks ago," head coach Stephen Stockton said. "I am very proud of each one of them. They have been working very hard, in-spite of the weather the past couple of weeks."
On the heels of the team's first victory in 2011, West Point (1-2) will have another tough hurdle when they hit the road for the second time this season at Noxubee County.
Last week, the Green Wave used a dominating second half effort from its defense and a balanced attack on offense to earn a 33-12 win over visiting Starkville who handed them their only loss a year ago.
As many as six players will be out for Oak Hill in tonight's non conference slate versus Winona Christian. It's been an issue for the read and white since fall camp.
Head coach Benjie Merchant and his staff have been forced to reshuffle positions all year long.
"It's killing us," he said. "We get one back, we lose anther one."
Third string quarterback Adam Tumey, a new addition to the squad will be taking the snaps. Last season he played cornerback.
"He's got a good arm and good throwing motion, just lack of experience at the position," Merchant said.
With Hebron Christian School on the verge of a district title, Tuesday's 12-1 victory over Calhoun Academy clinched a fifth consecutive playoff appearance for the Lady Eagles.
A landmark in itself, but for pitcher Chloe Tapley, it solidified her as one of the best pitchers in the MAIS.
Tapley again had another stellar outing in the circle, just three hits given up to compliment 13 strikeouts.
Nothing new for the junior, who over the last few weeks had pitched three straight no-hitters.
Two of the region's top junior high programs squared of Tuesday night in the battle of the unbeatens, but after four quarters of play, Oak Hill (3-1) were handed their first loss on the year 24-14 to Indianola Academy (4-0).
The Raiders had dominated their opponents all season by a combined score of 104-6 heading into Tuesday's game, but after falling behind early, they struggled to catch up despite cutting the deficit to four points in the fourth quarter.
CALHOUN - Hebron pitcher Chloe Tapley reached 1,000 strikeouts for her career on Monday while helping the Lady Eagles secure their fifth consecutive post-season birth in a 12-1 win over Calhoun Academy.
Tapley struck out 13 batters and needed just seven to break the milestone and extend her total to 1,006 in 646 career innings. She has a total of 199 K's in 100 innings this season.
A complete feature will be published later this week in the Daily Times Leader.
Anyone who has had a chance to watch Wilma Davis and Nakeisha Walker on the court know they have talent. And this past summer, several of the country's top high school players had that same opportunity.
Walker and Davis, now seniors at West Point High School were selected to participate in the USA Junior National basketball tournament in Columbus, Ohio; a showcase of some of the best high school talent on the court where the players get a chance to work one on one with college coaches and get on the radar of some of the nation's best programs.
Oak Hill continued their winning streak Monday afternoon to three games with a 12-2 victory over Central Academy, a game that saw plenty of hits for the Lady Raiders including a two-run blast over center field by Lauren Hitt for the exclamation point. It was her first home-run of the season.
"Lauren is capable of hitting those like that, and she did today," head coach Marion Bratton said. "When she gets her timing down and she's in that certain zone, she can pop it."

Somerset House is well liked, and not just in comparison to its near neighbours (Trafalgar Square, Leicester Square, The London Eye) who tend to lack refinement.
Being liked makes a person all the friendlier. Today in Somerset House's elegant courtyard, the popular annual ice rink is under construction. In the summer, fountains shoot from the floor of the same courtyard, going very high and in various patterns of synchronization, cooling people, delighting children. On summer nights films are projected onto big screens for a reasonable price. The Coutauld Gallery, nuzzled in at the side, is free and has Michelangelo, Rubens, Rembrandt, Cézanne and Turner.

UA Fanthorpe: Life of the English poet
UA Fanthorpe, iconic poet and 'national treasure', left Cheltenham Ladies' College to work in hospitals. She tells Christina Patterson about pain, laughter - and love
Friday 31 October 2003
UA Fanthorpe was born in Kent in 1929. After boarding school in Surrey, she read English at St Anne's College, Oxford before training as a teacher. She taught at Cheltenham Ladies' College for 16 years and was Head of English for eight before deciding to do something radically different. It was while working as a receptionist at a neurological hospital in 1974 that she started writing poetry. After various residencies (Lancaster, 1983-5, Northern Arts Fellow, 1987) she left the hospital in 1989 to pursue her poetry full time.
She has published 10 collections of poetry, including Side Effects (1978), Standing To (1982), Neck-Verse (1992), Consequences (2000) and Queueing for the Sun (2003), all published by Peterloo. Her Collected Poems are due from Peterloo next spring. UA Fanthorpe was appointed a CBE in 2001 and awarded the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry earlier this year. She lives in Wotton-under-Edge, in an Elizabethan cottage, with her partner, Rosie Bailey.
The woman sitting opposite me, a sprightly 74-year-old in jeans, tank-top and rather owlish glasses, might have been our poet laureate. When Ted Hughes died, in 1998, and the media launched its usual frenzy of speculation about the next in line for the butt of sack (or perhaps the poisoned chalice), UA Fanthorpe was one of a number of names thrown into the poetic ring. She would have been a laureate in the Betjeman mould: quintessentially English, wry and humorous with widespread popular appeal. But, of course, she didn't get it. "I never really thought I would," says the poet once described as a "national treasure". "Andrew's worked so hard - and I haven't got that much energy left in me".
UA Fanthorpe may not be a household name, but in the poetry world she is loved and revered. One of a select group of poets to feature on the A-level syllabus, she was the first woman to be published in King Penguin. She was also, in 1995, the first woman in 315 years to be nominated for the post of Professor of Poetry at Oxford. "There were all these people wanting me to win," she recalls, "but fancy going up against James Fenton! You know, the brilliant boy, the wonderful man, the Independent reporter. We went to lunch in his rose garden and there were two armed motorbike police, escorting Salman Rushdie". It was clearly more exciting than her own brief moment of fame.
After two near misses, however, Fanthorpe has now been honoured by the very heart of the establishment. On St George's Day this year, she was awarded the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry, only the fifth woman in 70 years to get it. As one of the judges for last year's Golden Jubilee Poetry Competition and a CBE since 2001, she was no stranger to the Palace. This time, she had an audience with the Queen. "She's got a very good sense of humour," she confides, "and she's very quick off the ball. You don't think this is an old lady of 80 or whatever she is, she's just somebody who's very good at her job." The Queen is, in fact, a mere three years older than Ursula Askham Fanthorpe, but it's not hard to see what she means. There is something both ageless and slightly child-like about this gentle poet with the wide eyes and the extraordinarily sweet smile. In spite of the fierce intelligence, the wisdom and erudition that are all evident in the poems, there is something about her that isn't quite of this world.
It all started in the early Seventies when Fanthorpe suffered what might now be called a mid-life crisis. She had been Head of English at Cheltenham Ladies' College when she suddenly decided that she "wanted to find out more things about the way life worked, the way people are", and that she must "do something else before it's too late". After a year off and an "illuminating" course in counselling, she "joined a thing called Manpower", where she discovered that her inexperience with photocopiers and the paraphernalia of office life was a serious obstacle to employment. She temped as a "telephone clerk" at Butlers Chemicals and Hoover, and then applied for "a real job with a hospital". It was to change her life.
Working as a receptionist at the aptly named Burden Neurological Hospital in Bristol, Fanthorpe certainly discovered more about the range of human experience. Here were men and women with head injuries, epilepsy, obsessional neuroses, a young curate paralysed in a road accident, a woman "who had had an epileptic fit and fallen into the fire". "I found it moving, horrifying and beautiful," she confesses, "all the things that human life is, the things that are swept under the curtain that you're not expected to see." Suddenly, she had something to write about. In poems about "Julie (encephalitis)" or "Alison (head injury)" she made her first attempts to capture the voices of people who could not speak for themselves, in acts of literary ventriloquism that were to become something of a trademark.
In addition to a whole new palate of human pain, she discovered another new world, one of bureaucracy, hierarchy and the petty machinations of office power. "One of my advantages was the fact that I wasn't used to being treated as if I was dirt," Fanthorpe explains with a smile. "And some of the doctors did treat me as if I was dirt. It was a challenge. I had my own technique. I based it on PG Wodehouse. Being extraordinarily polite and well bred and doing exactly what they said - rather over the top!" she adds with a slightly Wodehousian chuckle. Her poem "For Saint Peter" is an ironic assertion of solidarity, conflating the difficult outpatients who "cry,/or knit,/ Or fall on the floor in convulsions" with those jostling at the holy gates and comparing both groups, unfavourably, with the inpatients who "know what's what in the set-up" and "know about God (in my case Dr Snow) and all His little fads". Her final stanza, a chummy aside to the saint, sums it up: "If you know what I mean, they haven't yet learned/ How to be reverent."
Elsewhere, she writes about the list she has typed and "spaced/ At the proper intervals" which has not yet turned "nasty,/ Senile, pregnant, late," or otherwise "stained by living". The voice throughout this first collection, Side Effects - and, indeed, all her work - is wry, laconic, clear-eyed and, above all, compassionate. The poems are like acts of witness and remembrance, in some cases literally so. In "Lament for the Patients", from her second collection, Standing To, she remembers all the ones who committed suicide. "I can quite see that it's hard for the doctors and nurses," she says with characteristic generosity. "They have to forget the failures, but I was a clerk. A clerk keeps going through the card index and all these things, and I would remember and I wanted to remember them. It seemed, in a way, a job for a poet... It was difficult living with the unhappiness. Sometimes I would come home and feel I smelt of it and Rosie would say, yes you do, you need a bath."
Rosie is Dr Rosie Bailey, a former academic, now a poet herself and undoubtedly the power behind the Fanthorpe throne. It was Rosie who stopped the car under street lamps in those early years, so that UA (she prefers not to be called Ursula) could scribble down the poem that had started to come to her on the way home from work. It was Rosie who encouraged her to write, Rosie who collated the early poems, Rosie who told her which magazines to send them off to, Rosie, indeed, who posted them. Today it is Rosie who has picked me up from the station, waited an hour and a half for my missed connection and driven me through the sunlit Gloucestershire countryside to the book-lined converted stable they have shared since 1975. It is Rosie who has prepared the dainty sandwiches we are munching now. When UA Fanthorpe does a reading, Rosie shares the platform with her, supplying the second voice that crops up in so many of the poems. "Quite apart from loving her," says Fanthorpe simply, "she's quite the most marvellous person I've ever met."
The couple met at Cheltenham Ladies' College and have been together since 1965. How difficult, I ask slightly nervously, was it for them to be open about their relationship? "We weren't really open about it to each other, were we?" says Fanthorpe with a shy smile. "We were never out, but we were never in," adds Rosie, who is present throughout the interview at Fanthorpe's request, pouring coffee, offering sandwiches, and supplying missing snippets of information and the odd laconic comment. "Of course, there's the invariable occasion when people think that Rosie's a man," Fanthorpe volunteers cheerily. "She's got a deep voice you see and she's got this natural authority. When people say, 'And what does he think?', I have to think she's he. You just keep with it and hope that nobody who knows you will turn up."
There is something about this statement that makes me want to hug them both. I have tried to ask Fanthorpe her feelings about being something of a lesbian icon, but have been deflected, as I half expected, by eulogies to Rosie and comments such as these. UA Fanthorpe is far too well bred to enter into detailed discussions about her sex life and too kind to disabuse those who have made an honest mistake. Her poems, in fact, say it all: poems such as "Atlas", from her collection Safe as Houses, which talks of "a kind of love called maintenance" which "keeps/ My suspect edifice upright in air,/ as Atlas did the sky." Or "The Poet's Companion", which lists the multifarious and onerous duties taken on by poet's wives, inspired, apparently, by Marie Heaney singing to a coach-load of poets in Rotterdam. She is, ironically enough, probably the only woman poet I can think of who almost literally has a wife.
At recent public readings, UA Fanthorpe has been described as "a mistress of light verse", which is, she thinks, "a very disagreeable thing to be". Much of her poetry is indeed very funny, but with the utterly serious undertones that characterise the best light verse. Her new collection, Queueing for the Sun (Peterloo, £7.95), reflects the full range of her work, with many poems inspired by history, some wryly humorous dramatic monologues and a number of extremely moving elegies. Above all, she is an English poet, who does feel part of a very English tradition. "It's great to think that we have poets like Chaucer going right back - so humane, so generous in his mind, so terribly inventive in the way he used poetry... When I think of Chaucer and Shakespeare and my pet love, Browning, there they are. You know you've got to keep it up."
UA Fanthorpe may at times sound a little like a character from Enid Blyton, but she is right to see herself in the English poetic tradition. She is an extremely talented poet who ought to be a great deal better known. "The thing about Shakespeare," she announces, as I take my last bite of lemon drizzle cake, "is that he is funny and sad at the same time... That is something I think we have inherited."
UA Fanthorpe was born in Kent in 1929. After boarding school in Surrey, she read English at St Anne's College, Oxford before training as a teacher. She taught at Cheltenham Ladies' College for 16 years and was Head of English for eight before deciding to do something radically different.
