| Bio: | I'm from South Africa - grew up in Durban, went to university in Cape Town, where I studied Computer Science. I didn't work very hard, but I did get a BSc :) I moved to the UK in December 2003. After a short stint as a water-meter reader in Wales (interesting!), I worked for a while at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Then I moved on to the European branch of a zaibatsu, but I hated that. I'm now working as a University sysadmin in central London. I'm in the Territorial Army. I've recently commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant at RMA Sandhurst, and am now doing post-Sandhurst training while I try to decide whether Signals or Logistics is where I want to go. In my spare time I run a role-playing game (Ars Magica) and play in another (Lord of the Rings). I'm also learning Russian (as you may have noticed from my Interests section). 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 | |||||
