Betwix Harrogate and York

I investigate rail accidents. But also do a lot of other railway signalling related work.

Has it's highs and lows, but helps top up the household income, my wife's a doctor, sadly she is reluctant to pay for me to go hillclimbing.

I run my own IT company, i specialise in websites, networks, servers, desktops etc. I also program in ASP, PHP, .NET, C##, MSSQL, MySQL etc.

My main area of work lies in sorting out businesses with crap IT infrastructures by upgrading them to the latest server platforms.

Studying a BEng Instrumentation And Control Engineering degree. I've also got a full time job as a chef at a local restaurant which fits around my studies. At the minute whilst off uni for the summer i'm working on an Ethylene Oxide chemical plant at ICI Wilton, desperately trying to get rid of the student overdraft that the mini has inflicted!
