Looked after Huntingdon for many years. Ran sheep and cattle on the 1,000 acre farm, and grew wheat and barley. Keen para-glider and yachtsman. He also devoted a lot of his life to the local CFA brigade, was a pioneer in radio communications and a very good farm engineer. He was always more than happy to share his knowledge and encourage others with projects. Ted retired from running Huntingdon in 2001 when the effects of Parkinson's Disease became too severe. He contracted encephalitis at 14 years old at cadet camp at Puckapunyal - this led to Parkinson's Disease in later life.
