Welcome to

Beccy's Home Page


I was born in Ixopo and grew up in Pietermaritzburg and Grahamstown. I was educated at St John's School, DSG and Rhodes University, where I did a BA(Hons) in English. I have been living in Johannesburg with Jonathan Stones since 1995, after coming here on holiday and never quite leaving. We got married on 4 September 1999 and have three children, Alexander, Sophie and Finnian. After four years as a stay-at-home mom, I have returned to work at Credit Guarantee.

Hobbies

My hobbies at the moment are violin, which I am learning using the Suzuki method, and running. I am training for the Totalsports Ladies Race on Women's Day. Before having children my hobby was choral singing. I have sung in these choirs:
