Since this is a new blog, I thought I would post a little more information on myself in the vain hope that somebody will read this blog one day.

I was born in Swindon, but grew up in Plymouth, Devon here in the UK. After a fairly uneventful time at school I went to University in Plymouth, Bradford and Portsmouth.

I work as biomedical scientist, usually in a blood transfusion lab somewhere in the country. After my training at the Royal Free in London, I have worked in hospitals in Harefield, Harlow, Watford, Gillingham, Birmingham, Oxford & Glasgow. I am just about to start another placement in Burnley.

I like traveling, but I only started going abroad since starting my first real job. My first ever trip abroad was to Pakistan, I have since been to Sweden, Belgium, America and Australia. There are two places that a person must visit if they get chance in the life: The Grand Canyon and the Great Barrier Reef.

I work in professional sport during the summer as a cricket scorer and statistician. What started out as a hobby is now a full time job during the summer months when I work for Worcestershire County Cricket Club. During the winter months I go back to work as a biomedical scientist.

That should be enough boring information for now.....if anything exciting happens, I may just post again...
