Trained as a car mechanic in the 1960s in Gloucester UK, at a Standard Triumph garage. Left in 1970 to join a UK mainframe computer company, in 1980 moved to a UK (the Japanese) cadcam company, and in 2000 joined a USA latches and catches company as network engineer.
I have been lucky enough to have owned loads of interesting cars, and in the 1970s did a nut and bolt rebuild of an MG TC.
Dogs, folk music, cars of course.
