Harry is a man from Gold Coast, Qld, Australia

Born in Yallourn, Victoria, Australia at a very early age. Studied classical piano from 9 years old until 14 when I quit. A few months later, someone played a Nat King Cole Trio record for me and I was hooked for life ! Talk about enthusiasm ! Practice of 6 - 8 hours daily in addition to having a full time job built up a stamina for playing I'm still benefitting from today after 40 + years of playing.

My other long term passion in life has been aviation which fascinated me from about 10 years old. Had to check out each aircraft which flew over our town and soon learned to recognise all types. As a small boy I went to our local aero club, refuelled, cleaned windscreens and as a reward was given many delightful open cockpit flights. Music was the greater passion so I concentrated on that and ignored flying until my 39th birthday when the decision was taken to learn to fly. The Commercial licence was gained and a Seaplane endorsement followed soon after. Very soon I was working as a seaplane pilot and in what seemed moments, 20 years had passed and it was time to hang up the headset for good. I sure had lots of fun and have seen truly remarkable places, which is why I consider myself a bit of an authority on some of Australia's most interesting seaplane destinations.

In recent years the music industry has been great and our trio of Peter, Warren and I got together in 1990 for all types of gigs, concentrating on playing jazz - my music of passion ! In 2004 we added Malcolm Wood on trumpet and vocal and since June 19th that year have played at the Gold Coast's premier jazz venue, The Basement at the local Arts Centre.

Over the last few years I have become a really enthusiastic Property Investor and have done well due to lots of education, firstly from Vital Link, then 21st Century Academy, and lately a Sydney based organization called Positive Real Estate [ PRE ]
