Blair Cramer emigrated from Ceylon (Sri Lanka) in 1962 to continue a banking career with what was then the Bank of New South Wales.  He switched to a career in real estate in 1985. 
 
On joining U3A he enrolled for chess and the choir.  In 2007 he took over as chess tutor for U3A city and introduced a once secret Russian method of chess training for beginners.  More advanced chess players are invited to practise their skills and/ or engage in learning with others in a friendly environment.
 
His interest in Eastern and Western philosophy led to a short course - New Insights - which looks at the question:  What does it take to be happy?  Sickness, depression, anger, inescurity and fear of death including the obstacles to a positive Attitude are examined. 
 
Blair is an avid Radio National listener and keen golfer.
