Hello from east Christchurch, the land that EQC, Brownlee and the MoE forgot!
The last time I had anything resembling 'geek' credentials, telnet was the closest thing to social media, an email account was a privilege and images were something that you loaded once you found the page you were looking for.
These days I know just enough tech stuff to be dangerous, but I would probably be the go-to-guy if your French car craps out. Citroen/Peugeot owners will be offered advice, Renault owners just sympathy.
Apart from that I have slow burning passion for espresso machines that far exceeds my ability to actually consume espresso and I dabble in non lycra-clad cycling.
