Colin has a lifelong interest in history and music, pursued alongside his day job, first as a bookseller and then as a parish priest. His current interest is in how we study history, and how our own perspectives can be very different from those of the past. He has a great enthusiasm for teaching adult learners: his own academic qualifications were gained as a mature student and he is often involved in mentoring church ministry trainees
