I'm not really one to go on at great lengths about myself but I'll make an exception this once and tell you something about me.
I'm in my mid thirties, an Aquarian (though I can't see why that's relevant) and a bit of a spod when it comes to computers. Despite being hooked by computers at the tender age of 12, I decided to study to be a mechanical engineer. In 1988, I took the Special Engineering Programme at Brunel University. After graduating I became a seal designer at . In 1995, I decided I wanted to do a PhD so I took a post as a research assistant at the University of Bath. In 1996 I saw a television programme on site-swaps and a few months later Juggle Saver was born. During 1997 I became delusioned with academia, I gave up my PhD and returned to the real world. Over the years I've had a number of software engineering roles in the areas of: real-time financial information handling; foreign currency trading; large e-commerce web systems; and compiler design. I currently work for a well known engineering company, based outside Oxford, where I develop simulation software.
Outside of computing my main passions are alternative music and contemporary fiction. I'm a bit of a fitness fanatic and have recently started competitive rowing for a local rowing club.I enjoy fine food, cooking, most alcohol drinks (apart from Benedictine) and meeting up with friends to talk about nothing in particular. I have a penchant for surreal humour, I like parentheses (another word for brackets), my favourite animal is the giraffe and I don't have a favourite colour.
