| Location | Fareham, Hampshire, United Kingdom |
| Introduction | Library work: I have been in a library or information environment, either paid or voluntary, since 1978 when I started to assist my primary school with their book club. I have worked in libraries with schools, public authorities, oil and gas, financial, further education and now defence. Scouts: I have been volunteering as a leader in the Scouting movement since 2000; first in Gosport, then in Fareham, and now in Scout Active Support for Gosport. Gas history; though I left the industry by compulsory redundancy in 1992, my name made its mark and so I thought it would be good to combine my first job with my web 2.0 stuff and show what's available. I am, as Mr Therm used to say, burning to serve you. |
