He soon joined some friends at Nandi Hills, where tea was being grown experimentally and he liked the place so much that he bought some land there to farm himself, and also got a job with the Uganda Tea Company, ending up as their manager. He joined the Kenya Defence Force and was posted to the 3rd King's African Rifles and fought in Abyssinia and Somalia. After the war he went to England and met a nurse whom he married. He returned to Kenya but retired shortly after the Mau Mau emergency, believing that the new Kenya was no place to bring up their children. They moved to Duntisbourne.
