I was born on the 8th August 1965 (40 years old in 2005 ! - the painting above was a present from my talented friend Chris Bohanna), I was married to Elizabeth (Liz) on 19th May 1996 and we now have two beautifull girls ~ Faye's Page and Sabrina's Page.
I have owned many Commodore computers
(in various guises) since the early 80's. Prior to this I learned
my trade operating Commodore
PET's in my comprehensive school
~ 
Buttershaw Comprehensive
School ~ in Bradford, West Yorkshire. Even earlier than this
I was using the schools 'remote telex terminal' and 'punch card
reader terminal' in
1979 to the sounds of "Are 'friends' Electric ?" by Tubeway Army with Gary
Numan - Ah yes, the good old days !!!
I attended a school reunion to chat to some old friends in 2004, pop along to see who went and how they turned out.
As well
as my other interests, I (along with friends) enjoy nothing more
than dressing up and popping along to a Rocky Horror Show
(usually in Bradford at the Alhambra). Go on, let your hair down
and enjoy yourself !! There are two good Rocky sites, the official
one is here and the
other one is here.
A recent
venture for me is building a semi-automated life-size working
Dalek. This has been someting I have wanted to do ever since I
was a child and as I have now turned forty I thought I had waited
long enough - it is now or never. Here
are some pictures of my current progress.
For a proper paying job I am a firefighter with the West Yorkshire Fire Service and I have been since September 1989. The fire engine pictured is a recent photo of our current appliance before I bent it ! - I never said I was a good driver K
So, all in all, you can imagine that I am quite a busy boy trying to juggle my life, job and hugely time consuming hobbies !
