About
Hotch potch
Sort of generalist. Countries, languages, skills, definitely not a master of one, but curious and like new challenges and people. That syncing, whiteboard session, finding a ‘missing bit’, a new insight is the most inspirational and enjoying part of research in my humble opinion.
Live music, comedy, vegetable cuisine, water, all adorable too. Do enjoy over generalising stereotypes occasionally, sorry sociology (see below).

Amateur sociology
Winding veils round their heads, the women walked on deck. They were now moving steadily down the river, passing the dark shapes of ships at anchor, and London was a swarm of lights with a pale yellow canopy drooping above it. There were the lights of the great theatres, the lights of the long streets, lights that indicated huge squares of domestic comfort, lights that hung high in air.
No darkness would ever settle upon those lamps, as no darkness had settled upon them for hundreds of years. It seemed dreadful that the town should blaze for ever in the same spot; dreadful at least to people going away to adventure upon the sea, and beholding it as a circumscribed mound, eternally burnt, eternally scarred. From the deck of the ship the great city appeared a crouched and cowardly figure, a sedentary miser.
Very amateur psychology

Started with a CRT, tape player and foresight of Sir. Clive Sinclair. The hobbyist culture of the UK, magazines (not those!) and intrigue, it started there.
Testimonials
This website is nothing more than boring tech, tiresome stories and dodgy photos, but I did like the old concert tickets.
