He built his first disco unit when he was 18 while he was also a record librarian at Winchester Hospital Radio and started gigging in 1985 when he was 19 ,He had a break in 1989 to do hospital radio again but in Southampton where he did various shows until landing the Tuesday night request show .

A house move to Peterborough saw him having to give it up but he re launched his mobile disco gigging all round Cambridgeshire and Fenland until an old back injury put him into retirement .

In 2003 he saw an advert on the uk radio forums for presenters for an internet station called The Big Easy ( TNR ) , So he sent a demo and was doing Saturday and Sunday afternoons until a relaunch later that year to TNR Radio and was presenting the Soul and Dance show on Saturdays until the stations closure in 2008, the show is now syndicated on radio stations around the world
