For those of you who don't know me here's a brief introduction.
I've worked in Information Technology (the computer biz) for over 25 years now. What I don't know about computers isn't worth knowing. My trade now is a Database Administrator although I'm currently unemployed and have been since last April after being made redundant by VodaFone. My main expertise is programming and I've worked with most languages. At home I have my own Local Area Network with a server and 3 workstations. Mainly I'm on my laptop in the lounge although you will see me in my study frequently applying for jobs and responding to emails.
My other half is Canadian and on the web goes by the id valerian. We've been together for over 6 years now. I've a daughter from my previous marriage who is now 17 and at art college, hoping to get into Advertising. We've a large 4 bedroom house up in th' hills of Lancahsire in the Rossendale valley.
My interests include word games, Sudoku, Crosswords, Walking and Science Fiction. I'm a member of Alcoholics Anonymous and have been sober since 13th November 1996.
