Went to university to study Model Design and Special Effects (yes that was an actual course). Finished up as an architectural model maker till I got made redundant when the recession hit.
Became a duct fitter on multi-million pound hotel projects all over the country, then jacked it in to become an apprentice pattern-maker. I'd had enough of cold sites in the winter.
Now I just make patterns for engine blocks and the like. Loving it :-)

Ogri - you still playing bass these days? Used to see you occasionally round the Peterborough pubs with Smithy.

Oooh, might be headed your way July/August - discount for FOCcers? 

Mind you, if you give discount at those prices, you'll be paying us to stay there  :lol

[River Valley]

Thanks Nick, for the nice comments.
Yes, of course we'll do discount for FOCcers - 10% off our usual cheap rates, making it 18 Euros (£15!) including breakfast and garage parking!
Be good to see you and other FOCers over. Maybe we should have a Euro meet, though the annual one from the German forum is just down the road.

Not for BT, with Eircom, but worked with them for many years in the eighties from across the pond in Dublin, all through the changes from Government owned to Privatisation. Trained a lot of BT staff over the years too. Most were all ways good for a laugh
