About Me:
My name is Henton Kates. I am a British Jamaican and I have lived and worked in London for 63 years. I am divorced and have 2 grown-up daughters and 3 grandsons.
Upon leaving Secondary school in the mid 1960’s I served a Structural Engineering Apprenticeship with a firm of Steel Contractors in Stratford, East London. I was educated to Higher National Certificate level in Building Constuction at Eastham Technical College.
My two professions have been as a Structural Engineering Technician, and Licensed Private Hire Driver, (over 20 years in each). I have been retired since July 2017.
I was a keen cricketer when young and fit but now I watch sports on TV especially football, tennis and snooker.
My main leisure interests are; films, popular music, and watching television detective dramas. Favourite films; ‘Capricorn One’, ‘The Fugitive’ and ‘Con Air’. Favourite music artistes; Prince, Bob Marley and Chaka Khan. I also like listening to Salsa music and regularly go to a salsa dancing & social club. I am also a member of a over 60’s Caribbean social club based in South East London.
I have always been interested in photography and film production and remember wanting to be a television camerman when I was very young. Now I can be in front of the camera!
