If there was an award for 'The Most Strings to Someone's Bow', the winner would surely be John 'Lefty' Lethbridge.  A practical man with a mind for mechanics, Lefty has a farm, is a mechanical engineer for the marine and agricultural industry, builds milking parlours for dairy farms and is a talented fibreglasser.

His talents also mean that he is usually roped in to helping out the other Fishy Friends when they encounter problems with their cars and boats (none of us own a milking parlour!).

Sitting at the higher end of the vocal range, as a top tenor, Lefty is always finding harmonies that the other boys would never dare attempt.  He also tends to sing some of the cheekier and more humorous songs in the FF repertoire.  He loves nothing better than to belt out his harmonies as he rides in his JCB around his land or his newest venture.... MILL MEADOW CAMPSITE.

As a Certificated Site, MILL MEADOW can accommodate 5 units (Motorhomes & Caravans) and up to 10 tents, where all adults are members of The Camping & Caravanning Club.  To find out more about the campsite, you can CLICK HERE.

Lefty loves to spend his time out in the great outdoors and in his younger years was a dab hand at dirt bike riding on his motorbike.
