Salmon Fishing in the Yemen – Paul Torday

I’m glad I didn’t let myself get put off by the endorsement from the author of “A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian”, as I enjoyed the satire of Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, and Dr Jones’ own voyage of self discovery.

About Me

Born and brought up in Solihull, I studied at St Andrews and in Chester before moving to live and work in London. In 2020 I relocated to Herefordshire.

I’ve done a variety of jobs in the legal sector, focusing on the knowledge management and technology side of things since 2000. You’ll find details on LinkedIn.

SparklyTrainers is about my world outside work. As you’ll see, I love to travel, take photos and read.

My email is [my firstname] @ [my surname].com
