I am a 38 year old male, living in the U.K. I work for Vauxhall Motors (part of G.M.) as an electro-mechanical maintenance engineer..for the past 22 years. Married with three wonderful children.

I would dearly love a career change and get into Web design (as so many of us would).

Hobbies include sitting at the computer as often as possible, following Luton Town Football Club (don't laugh) and tracing my family tree back for the last 18 years. I have been fortunate enough to trace back to 1510 and the results can be viewed at http://www.custance.co.uk

I met my wife on the internet over 5 years ago, she came over for a holiday and we ended up getting married.
Just do this (web sites) for fun, made a bit of money but I still have to keep my day job.

Hi there all you wonderful people,

I'm a 25 year old male. I run a small Internet technology & media consultancy - made up of a team young, award winning web and network-hardware developers.

Getting work for ourselves has not been easy, and at time's painful... but it's all part of wanting to contribute positively to the community and getting paid for it at the same time. The people that work with me are great - having great sense of self, and most of all humor!

My interests are art, theather, film, The Disney Channel and horizontal bunjee-jumping.

I'm believer in tolerance and forgiveness - except for Barney The Purple Dinosaur. I also have proof that The Teletubbies are evil!
