Brendan

From: Sutton Coldfield

Irish-born Brendan has begun a two-year project to bake all of the breads in the world. To date, the 63-year-old has made 90. He’s always dreamed of pursuing a career in baking and, now semi-retired, bakes as a hobby.

He describes himself as a perfectionist, determined and a “complete-finisher”. Brendan’s grade 8 in cello, having taken up the instrument only a few years earlier, but insists he has some way to go to get the right beautiful sound.
