Into the outdoors for many years when a kid but distracted by the evils of living in the South East, (where it is mostly flat and dull), like pubs and cities so neglected hills & trails etc for too long. Re-discovered it all in my mid twenties and then relocated the family to Pennine Lancashire to be close to all things upland. Keen hill walker, fell runner and climber. Happy with trad, sport even happy to show all my weaknesses by bouldering.
