About Me
In my den!
Just who is Len Baker:
I've lived in Birstall for all but 4 years of my life and originally worked in engineering. Myself and my sisters were fortunate that our parents realised the advantage of being able to play a musical instrument, consequently all 3 of us had piano lessons. I started playing the piano aged 10 and completed my examinations when I was 21. I've been teaching successfully for over 25 years from home and within schools, inc working as a Yamaha Music School teacher.
I also play the saxophone and play in The Leicester Big Band.
I have been married for 38 years and we have 4 children, one of whom is special needs and who we adopted from the Philippines back in 2005 when he was 8. We now also have 7 grandchildren and this picture is with the latest addition just after he arrived :)
