A bit about me…

I am Neil Fletcher, and I was born in Stoke-on-Trent in 1964.
I was nearly always called ‘Fletch’ before moving to Swansea and then Aberdeen, where they seemed to prefer ‘Neil’.
Now I’m back in Englandshire, Fletch is gaining in popularity!

My personal website is www.ndfletcher.org.uk

I’ve worked in Marks & Spencer, Cefn Coed Community Project, Gray Forklifts, Andrew Leiper & Sons, Moda Furnishings and too many bars to list here.
From 2003-12, I was a Councillor on Aberdeen City Council, and a Vice-President of the Convention of Scottish Local Authorities from 2007-2012.
I also do a bit of self employed book-keeping and tax work, and am a residential Landlord. Basically, since I officially retired, I’ve never been busier 😉

I studied at Chell High School, City of Stoke-on-Trent Sixth Form College, Aberdeen University, and Aberdeen College of Commerce.

In 1992 I started courting John Stewart.  In 2005 we entered into a Civil Partnership, and converted this to marriage in December 2014.
In November 2017 we celebrated 25 years together.
John died of cancer in the spring of 2022.
My interests are Music, BrewDog (the Aberdeenshire based craft beer brewery), playing around with Computers, and Port Vale Football Club. When I’m not doing any of those, you may find me in a good old fashioned local pub.
