A Life full of Hobbies

by Percy W. Blandford

Percy Blandford was a man of many talents, interests and achievements. A world-renowned boat designer and builder, a pioneering D-I-Y expert and the author of countless books and magazines on an extraordinarily wide range of technical subjects, he was also a leading figure in the Scouting movement for well over eighty years, an unrivalled long service record for which he was honoured with a unique certificate that had to be created especially for him. He lived on to reach the grand old age of 101 and here, in his own words, he tells the stories that went to make up each chapter of a long, remarkable and very varied personal and professional life that he did, indeed, regard as having been full of hobbies.
