• 후회

  I should have travelled MUCH, MUCH more while I was younger. My advice to a younger self would be to get a skill you can do anywhere, then bugger off and do it everywhere; you'll see the world while keeping yourself fed, clothed & sheltered.

• 저는 ~에 대해 이야기 하는 것을 즐깁니다.

  I enjoy talking about many, many things, and I'll list a few here in no particular order. Please don't think that I am restricted to these matters alone. After all, There are more things in heaven and Earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

  Beer and brewing
  Politics
  Faith and religion
  cooking and food
  Technology and computer
  Sailing and yachting

• 나에 대한 특별한 점

  I bake the best Victoria Sponge cake that I have ever had, so much so that I once beat the head of the local Women's Institute in a baking contest, much to her indignation.

• 저는 ~의 전문가 입니다.

  Boringly I am an expert in the field of IT, both in cloud-based architectures and the software solutions which run upon them. This is because it's my day job, and I must do something to pay the bills. I am, in fact, what used to be derogatively called a "geek", which means both that I am capable of using polysyllabic words in a sentence and that I can actually bear my own company while fixing some other fool's problem.

• 내가 방문한 도시와 국가

  I have mainly only travelled for work, but I have been to Italy, Denmark and Portugal.
  Although I hold a Yachtmaster sailing qualification I have never sailed abroad due to work constraints.

  I want to learn three languages so that I can get a better understanding of my world.
  Ancient Greek, Latin and Hebrew

  I’m a certified Yachtmaster and therefore a very keen sailor,

  I brew some rather excellent all grain beers and porters

  I can pretty much make a computer do anything is ask of it.

  I recently bought my first sports car, no it’s not part of a mid-life crisis

• 어린시절의 즐거움

  I’m old enough to be of a generation where we were allowed to play outdoors and that freedom was my greatest pleasure. Being able to explore the countryside with a gang of pals, build tree houses and rope swings. Those days were heavenly.

• 장난 또는 조언

  Before calling IT support, check:

  Is it switched on?
  Is it really switched on, at the all too?
  Should it have paper in it?
  Has it got paper in it?
  Is the screen on (see above)

  Have you tried turning off, and back on again?

• 학교 시스템 개선

  Get better school governors and make sure the money raise is spent wisely

• 장애물 없는 경력

  Is one boring career
