A Bit About Me

I was born in Manchester in 1967, So I'll never see England win the World Cup. According to my Mother, my first word was 'Satellite'. My Dad is from the Isle Of Man. I lived in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne for several years. Despite this, I still have a soft spot for Newcastle United. I worked Freelance for various rapacious financial institutions on a series of dysfunctional, disastrous and/or otherwise doomed projects until recently, when I decided to take time off to write my literary masterpiece, specifically a novel.

My only remaining Ambition is to live forever, which I plan to do by uploading my outmoded physical brain to sparkling Virtual reality. Wikipedia is a start on this.
