ABOUT ME

Tall, a bit geeky, creative and not very practical. Career as independent government IT expert; successful entrepreneur now working hard on two new projects highly specialised in the area of "empowered customers" or buyer-centric commerce.

Partner and Dad, former glam rock musician, former rower, footballer and cricketer now into cycling.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a citizen of the world, even tho I pay my taxes in the UK.

I'm Quaker, ie egalitarian, hardcore pacifist, undogmatic, quite blunt, try t set aside time to enjoy inner stillness.

Our tradition is to try to live adventurously, and walk cheerfully seeking out the very best there is in everyone.
