Hi there.

I am in the Uk Nr London, i currently work in the data erasing & recycling side of the industry.
Also i have worked as a clockmaker and repaired cameras etc.

Never really considered myself as a Geek, but her indoors gave birth to 3 of them as they all have taken up my interests.
All grown up now & moved away, Kopete & webcam is all i see of them now.

So instead of looking at the Dutchess I sit here at my confuser & browse the net for something interesting to read.

Hence i have decided to put myself upon you people at the other side of the globe. I like the look of what happens in here.

If yer ever in England gis a shout, we'll have a beer and a round of golf together.

Cheers NZtechfreak.

Nice to get a welcome, I would love to jump on the next flight and come over for a year or so.
Make a nuisance of myself till ya get fed up with me.

Not that easy though is it. Work comitments etc.
Why can't life be what we want it to be instead of waiting to win the lottery.

I have seen somewhere here you are having a get together soon, have one for me.

Hey long shot but my mate has a brother living in NZ, Tim Brown or it might be Browne.
If ya bump into him give him a big hi from Uk I met him when he was over here.

Is he on the mainland? I might see him next time I am there... I often go to the cafe they have there.

Not sure whereabout on the island but i will make a point of finding out.
I do know he moved his young family out there  about 12 years ago and has no intention of returning to live here.
I don't blame him one bit, this country is really going to the dogs.
If i were a younger man i would get out.
He is a Electrician by trade.
Will get more details when i see his brother Karl in the pub.
