Barrie Skelcher's personal web site
Welcome to my Web site. I have several interests which are summarised in the photos above. I will discuss them fully in the following pages.
The Mirror 16 is a sailing dinghy designed for home construction in the 1960's and was originally sponsored by the Daily Mirror newspaper.
Vaseline Glass is sometimes known as Uranium Glass because it owes its colour to uranium in the glass mix. I have researched the use of uranium to colour glass and have now written two books on the subject.
By A Slender Thread is the first and only novel I have written. It is an imaginative story about what would happen if terrorists stole plutonium.
I have spent many years cruising the French, Belgian and Dutch waterways. This is a picture of the Meuse near the French - Belgian border
I can offer a range of illustrated talks. Want a speaker for your club or organisation in the East Anglia area, maybe I can help
Read my views of some current topics. They are quite different to the usual blurb that is peddled.
