Often finding the need to go under the hood to resolve issues with my gadgets I have so often found the answers right here, I've been meaning to sign up for ages.
Live in Hamilton, my better half won't let me ditch the MySky and I keep thinking about switching ISP so I can get VDSL, should I shan't I. Oh and I'm often tech support for friends and family.
I'm a supervisor in the Printing Trade, I'll bore you no more looking forwards to being part of this family.
