All About The Authors |
This website has been inspired by two like minded mums with a passion for the outdoors, far
too much time to fill and some bored kids to entertain. After writing numerous guide books
for pushchair walkers they’ve now tried to enable a wider audience to share their
experiences with this website.
Bec Terry (age 41) is the mother of two boys and a girl (Jamie, Sam and Emily) and
lives near Worcester. Originally from a family of farmers in the area, she
gained interest in the
outdoors from diving, caving and walking. After a degree from
Plymouth University
and a PhD in Parasitology from Leeds University, she worked as
a biologist until the
kids arrived. She is married to Phil, which makes this a very
difficult sentence to
conclude. When she is not out in the wilds with the kids, she
enjoys the homely
life of gardening, cooking, keeping and eating livestock,
and slug collecting.
Zoe Sayer (age 42) was dragged up in Pickering
and enjoyed
walking from an early
age. She studied
geology at Imperial
College and gained a PhD
in rock bashing from Durham.
She spent many years in Snowdonia and on a remote
Scottish island with husband Keith and kids, Rhodri and
Rhiannon, and has recently returned to "proper" work.
When not walking or looking for oil under the North
Sea, she enjoys bassoon playing and avoiding chores.
The co-conspirators Phil and Keith are two beardy,
beery blokes who when they aren’t walking with kids
are down the pub, and when they are walking with
kids are wishing they were down the pub.
