me and you need to become friends lol

Day job is a technical manager in a print and packaging company in Leeds.
Weekends are spent on my 1986 205 gti stage rally car, either driving it or working on it, the last couple of weeks have included changing the gearbox final drive and third and fourth from a gti6 box to make it closer ratio, also fitted a gripper diff, power steering and twin weber 40's to increase the power and help it make a better noise when it is bouncing on the limiter.
Only just got our Jimny, it is the wife's car, 2003 automatic with a mere 50,000 miles on it, needs bigger wheels, the LED lighter fitting and a tow bar.

Thanks for resurrecting this post raLLe, would be nice to get to know fellow newbie forum members

I'm an IT architect working for the government.

Lets get personal..... I work for Military intelligence, in a secret project known to all as "the oxymoron project". Contracts now signed, They gather the country's most unintelligent people, test em daily with infant toys, ya know.... block shapes through different holes, pin the tail on "any" donkey, ABC's etc etc. As contract states.... at the end of our lives, we have our brains dissected to see what the cause of our low IQ was. Its all very important stuff, and any breach of secrecy is punished by 30 mins on the naughty step.


Goofing aside..... I work for MIND the mental health charity. I am a lowly support worker, soon to be team leader. I work with individuals who suffer mental health issues, and I love it. I have psychology and media studies qualifications. Prior to this 4 years ago, I ran a VAT registered limited company selling e cigarettes in an online store. Before that I was a bum who drank too much and watched lots of TV. Nowadays I am a changed man, who doesn't drink (too much) and doesn't own a TV.

That's me

I'm mainly an SEO specialist but I also write magazine articles and website content. In my spare time I mostly sing and play guitar, 'ukulele and mandolin in pub bands.

I used to live in Hitchin, Hertfordshire and be office-based in Dunstable, Bedfordshire but my (Cornish) wife and I are moving to Cornwall this week and I'll be keeping the same job but working from home.
