Hello world, my name is Dale, I'm a 56 year old trucker & avid golfer. I'm married to my wife Jackie, just coming up to 30 years. We have 3 awesome grown up kids and 2 beautiful grandchildren. I passed my class 1 HGV licence back in 1993 whilst on tour of duty in Northern Ireland, I joined the Army in 1989 and served just over 23 years for Queen and Country, in that time I spent 10 years in Germany, 4 years in NI, 2 years in Canada and the rest within the UK, I completed a tour in NI and 2 tours of Iraq. I eventually took redundancy from the Army in 2012, for my resettlement I attended and gain my diploma with the European Golf Teachers Federation at the Darenth Valley GC in Kent in Sept 2012. Getting a job as a golf instructor in the UK is very difficult, especially when you have no experience, so I took my first real job as a truck driver, I had many jobs on the agency but eventually settled down with XPO, they have recently changed name to GXO, I have been employed with the company now for over 10 years, however my heart would still like to teach golf. I have recently started to upload videos to my YouTube channel and my website has been released. My passion has always been golf and that is what I'm now building my online business around.
