Hi Peeps, my name is John Morrish but over the years I seem to have collected many alias's.
At school I was known as Moo although most now know me as Johnny Mo, Jomo or just plain old Mo
I was bought up in Wickford, Essex and attended Beauchamps School
I served for 26 years with the Essex County Fire and Rescue Service (18 at Basildon, 4 at Canvey and the last 2 as a Breathing Apparatus Instructor at Orsett) before retiring in February 2004 with a knee injury
Prior to firefighting I served for 5 years onboard passenger liners and cargo boats as a deckhand, and visited over 140 ports around the Mediterranean, Africa, North and South America, the West Indies, Australia, the Pacific and the Far East.
I am now in the fortunate position to spend most of my time in Thailand, returning briefly in the summer to see family & friends

After leaving the sea and joining the Fire Service I led a normal humdrum kind of life until at the age of 39, I spent a weekend away in Newquay with the lads of White Watch, Colchester. It was during that weekend I learnt to surf and it made me realize that things that appeared at first glance to be out of reach were achievable if only I were to put my mind to it. There were so many things I had fancied trying that I felt that if I didn't make a start soon, then one day it might be too late

Since then I have enjoyed paragliding, hangliding, sailing, drag racing, biking, and had a dabble at skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking and kayaking

The latest achievement was to gain my microlight pilots licence whilst flying in Thailand but must have slowed down a bit I suppose co's I have also now taken up Lawn Bowls & Golf

For a taster of life in the Land of Smiles, check out the website I built for my mate Carlton at the Wanky Tankies Bar in Pattaya

It used to be a case of how to fit it all in but now I am retired, I have all the time in the world .... #:0)
