Bio

Currently between Derby and Nottingham in UK, I'm an older guy, built my first computer from a kit, then designed, laid out, etched, built pcbs to add disk & DMA to it, wrote crude DOS (1980). That was my way in to professional design and development career.

Fast forward.... career and work for others mostly done I'm now a geek who's a trained counselor, knows RSI from the inside, and with many other helpful life experiences, not least fatherhood :-). I now live off-grid on a narrowboat, which is teaching me how to maintain and live creatively.

I've been in one or other men's groups since 2005, lately drawn to men's sheds and maker communities but have neither yet. Currently supporting an open source project to replace the internet, yes pretty much all of it, with a SAFE (Secure Access For Everyone) version, launching by end 2014, see http://MaidSafe.net.

If you're nearby or find anything of interest, or just want to say hello, please say hello! :-)
