Member 		A research and development programmer working for a pharmaceutical instrument company.

I am one of those lucky people who enjoys his work and spends more time than he should either doing work or reseaching new stuff. I can also be found on the odd counter-strike server sometimes, or playing DDO on the european Devourer server (Send a tell to "Ordinary" who is my current main)

I am also a keep fit fanatic, doing cross country running and am seriously into [url]http://www.ryushinkan.co.uk/[/url] Karate at this time of my life, training from 4-6 times a week.

Apart from computer games and fitness, I also enjoy Juggeling, unicycling and other circus type skills.

I also have 2 step daughters, aged 21 and 23. They are both nice girls, but expensive to keep in food/clothes/mobile phones/cello's/travel etc, Plus I get insulted by them a lot!
