We don't f**k things up Timster, we provide solutions independent of DLP usually at final account stage.

And Kiwi, funny that we hear that pretty much all the time yet we are busier than ever hence why we do forensic work and ADR.

Might have been a slight exaggeration!

I work as a contract IT Project Manager, currently for a large (largest I think) Oil and Gas company but in my spare time I do a lot of testing for Orange mountain bikes.

I ride their bikes (all provided for free) and test out new components for them and normally Hope Technology, then they change designs etc, etc before they go into production. It's quite good but it does mean when things are prototypes they're always not quite right!

I just wanted to see what the reaction was and compete with the pilots etc...!!

I've just made the leap from 'soft' to 'hardcore' porn, it's a lot harder and the hours are tough but it pays the bills

50% automotive employer (it's Japanese and had a 'H' in its logo) / 50% events organiser
Although this will change to 25/75 and then hopefully 0/100 over the next 12-18months

Intetesting to hear about Daz's mountain bike links. I grew up as a bmx'er, in fact it was my job for a while, and never quite made it to downhill. Somehow found ironman racing instead which was a weird transition from the life as a bmx'er :)

I flew a plane from Blackpool to the Isle-of-Man once and loved it, I wasn't allowed to do the take off or landing but flew the whole way! I could just never dedicate the time to study and do PPL etc, etc.

Wish I'd joined the RAF as a youngster but I discovered beer and girls :)
