/away ..... when IRCing at w*rk .... |
I got introduced to the #pub by Aarn during 1995 as we had
adjacent desks at the time ...... and now I manage the IT systems
for our office, the #pub still somehow manages to appear on a
screen near me.... although I usually end up /away from it as
many 12:30-2:30pm (GMT) #pubbers will know. I have only managed
to attend one #pub gathering so far, but we both hope to make
more in the future...
I am married to DragnLady and we have 3 youngsters that keep us
far too busy. Music is a major activity in our household, we all
play more than one instrument (mine are violin and the bodhran -
the Irish folk music drum). There is also a (very loud!) drum
kit, electric and acoustic guitar, and a synthesiser keyboard
linked to the PC, as well as piano, more violins, recorders
etc..etc..
My interests include skiing - but only 1 week a year :( - IRCing
(on #pub of course!), computing (to maintain the IRC fix!!),
caravanning - I totally rebuilt our classic caravan in 1986 (and
it was 30 years old then!) - we use it several times a year and I
ususally find a few jobs/improvements to make each spring/summer,
and the hobby/interest I got my nick from, kiting, particularly
sport kites and power kites. My own collection is in excess of 40
from many different parts of the world. I am a member of the
Midlands Kite Flyers, the largest Kite Club in the UK with
somewhat over 1000 members. I think this is a subconcious escape
from the general noise and chaos of the rest of my life! (see
above....). I also belong to 41 Club, an association for ex-Round
Table Memebers.
