Tim currently resides in a leafy dell in the north of England. Sadly, his wife, Margaret passed away on Easter Monday this year and his return to Malta Comic Con is done so in her memory.
He now lives in the Keep with his new studio mate, his little chihuahua, Snoopy, Izzy and Candy two Shih Tzu dogs (mother and Daughter), Benny and Willow, to Cocker Spaniels and his newest addition to the Perkins menagerie, another Cocker Spaniel, Maggie – who is the last of Margaret’s final Breeding – (after Margaret retired from her job as a manager of an all-age centre, she became a certificated, five-star breeder – her legacy lives on through her children, grandchildren and her dogs. All of Tim’s dogs were bred by Margaret, except, Snoopy, who Margaret gave to Tim after he lost his beloved, Bentley.
Sadly, on Friday the 18th of October 2024 Tim’s Bestest little mate, Bentley Bogtrotter said, good night for the last time and ran over the Rainbow Bridge to join his friends there. His Spirit will live on inside the Keep forever.
