BORSTAL'S DEN

Last Updated - 6th March 2009

My name is Paul Ellis. I am known as "The Borstal", a nickname given to me many years ago by a group of friends. I was born in 1958 in England and moved out to Australia in 1969 with my parents. I married Jenny in 1984 and our daughter, Vicki was born in 1987. We live not far from Jervis Bay on the south coast of New South Wales. This website encompasses some of my interests and you will find a number of write-ups and photographs with which to view. Please feel free to check out all the links and you will also find an Email link at the bottom of this page if you wish to write.

 Enjoy
