It's all about me

When I finally get around to choosing a biographer I'll get them to write this page first, for now however you'll have to put up with own rambling thoughts.

Childhood

I was born in Stockport up north somewhere and via a brief stint in Caerphilly I mostly grew up on the lovely Island of Guernsey in the Channel Islands. Vale Junior school was nice but I really didn't work hard enough, GCSE's were fun at the Guernsey Grammar School, as were A-levels, but I really didn't work hard enough.

University

I occasionally attended the grand establishment that is Plymouth University, and frequented various pubs and clubs in the area. To this day I have never been anywhere that rains as much as Plymouth! After three years hard-ish work I came out with a 2-1 which I mostly deserved :-)

Rugby

I love rugby, and if only they would play when the weather is good I would love it a lot more! I've played for the Guernsey Rugby Club for years and played in the Siam cup a good few times - somehow I have managed not to play in our three recent wins over Jersey (although for one of them I was on the bench!) which is a bit depressing really. I also played some rugby for my Uni the highlights of which were being dropped from the first team after scoring a hattrick (yes still bitter!) and then winning the clubs Happy Rugby 7's tournament in 2000 with my team "The Embezzlers".

Work

I'm currently enjoying life as a web developer, mostly working with C# and .NET but also keeping up with PHP and getting to grips with the fantastic Ruby on Rails.
