About Me

I'm a bit of a geek, I have worked in the IT industry for about ten years now, pretty much all Windows based, but decided to use Linux at home, as it is a bit of light relief from the "joys" of Windows crashes and lockups.

I am also a lot of a car nut, I own a Mazda MX-5 (Miata for you Americans) and love it to bits.

Things I do for the community

I am in the process of re-starting the Colchester LUG (see #colchester-lug and also http://www.colchester.lug.org.uk )

I pimp ubuntu daily at both my work and in my social life

I help family and friends with their computer issues, mostly involving converting them to Ubuntu and free software.

I try my hardest to assist in the ubuntu irc channels, not yet feeling confident enough to be in the main support channels, but I'm always (well mostly) in #ubuntuforums #ubuntu-offtopic #ubuntu-uk and #ubuntu-ops, I am also in #tapthru and my #colchester-lug channels.

I am a active member of a few mailing lists, most notably ubuntu-uk's one, but also the lugmaster one and my colchester-lug one.
