About me

Unemployed, former local journalist. Nerd, living in the North West of England. I like tech I can't afford, things I don't need, TV, movies, firmware updates, The Tick, Warcraft, and music.

You have been warned. If you want to advertise or give me free stuff to write about, get in touch!Read more about me »
