****** Currently OUT of date. Needs updating ****** 09/11/2018

Hello and welcome,

This is so out of date!!! Maybe I might up date it sometime, if I can be arsed, as it is now 2024 some 19 years after 1st writing this page!

I used Front page for the first 5 years, but now with this update, I have changed over to using Dreamweaver MX 2004, as it seems to write proper code. Although I did this page in notepad, because we were having a new carpet fitted, and I got chucked out of the 'coms' room.....so I started rewriting this page from the PC downstairs.

Work and other Stuff

I used to work for a company called Nortel Networks, and was a transmission engineer, building fibre networks across England. The area (local??) I covered was from Leeds to the Isles of White, and from Norfolk to Bristol.....rather a large local area:-) However in March 2002 I got made Redundant, along with 1000's of other engineers, office stuff, etc, and it wasn't just Nortel getting ride of people, most of the big customers of Nortel were doing the same, lucky though it was only 3 months before I got a job with a company called Etrali, part of France Telecom. They dealt with dealer boards, basically I spent time as a service engineer, having to fix broken voice lines, and broken dealer boards.

Have fun
