Their two daughters are currently students of the Arts at University and their son is in sixth form, a scientist but without inclination towards medicine.

At weekends whenever possible they like to get out and about hill walking that he combines with his hobby which is landscape photography. During occasional bouts of madness he signs up for cycling and walking challenges the most recent being a bike ride across the Andes in Peru.
