For nearly 35 years I spent much of my time programming, and you can find out more about that (including papers and software downloads) at the older version of this website.
I retired from IBM in January 2000 and after a couple of years of part-time consultancy, became a postgraduate student, pursuing an MA in History of Film and Visual Media at Birkbeck College, University of London. You can read more about that side of my life, including essays I wrote, here.
I was elected a director of the IBM UK Pensions Trust in November 2002. You can discover my reasons for standing for election, including details of my complaint currently before the UK Pensions Ombudsman by looking at the website of the Association of Members of IBM UK Pension Plans. I stood again in November 2005 and was relected for another 3-year term.
Totnes Castle from the air
I've also become very interested in taking aerial photographs using a radio-controlled camera lofted by a kite.
Another of my interests is Astronomy, but those pages have still to be written!
