Who: A classic, middle aged, self confident, gung ho, white, European male. Has recently been shown that checking his privilege would be a good idea and having done so is desperately flailing wildly whilst trying to be bring reality into line with perception. Desperate to make sure that he doesn't end up a Stupid White Man.

What: A man doing stuff. Except when he's not.

Where: N'ere to be found. Best for everyone that way. Although I don't mind you knowing that I am a native of, and currently reside on, that lovely little island that can be found all around its roughly central point of 54°0′N 2°32′W. You never fully appreciate your own kind until you have looked at them through the eyes of another's. Living abroad will help you do that.

Why: Well, why not? I've yet to find a satisfactory purpose to life so keeping myself distracted from that fact, and helping others do the same would seem to be the best thing for now.

When: 20th Century built; 21st Century active.

Interests (In no particular order)
 * Getting off Google's radar. This won't be easy as I spent a long time getting onto it when I wanted to get off Microsoft's. This time I'll try for getting off everyone's.
 * Learning all about Open Source software and how this can help me achieve the above.
 * Raspberry Pi's and all that these little wonders can do.
 * Keeping a healthy relationship with the rest of humanity, especially those close to me. Actually, really, only with those close to me. I'm not overly enamoured with the rest and there are too many to get to know well anyway. I'm not sure that most of them would understand me and I certainly don't understand most of them.
 * Walking the line between enjoying life and not reducing it's expectancy it too much. This is a tricky one.
 * Children. Mine specifically. We don't understand each other and I've lost the manual on how to bring them up well so I'm having to take advice. I'm not good at taking advice.

Philosophy
 * Be nice to people, especially me.
 * No one gets to be rich, powerful or happy without considerable amounts of luck and the efforts of other people. So if you do get riches, power and happiness how about you share some with those who didn't get so lucky by themselves?
 * Think before you speak. This is harder than it sounds.
