A little about me

I've now reached the ripe old age where I no longer have to work for a living, so I can now do things that I like to do, with my wife's kind permission of course!

frustration aplenty!!

One of the things I like doing is playing with computers and their accessories, such as build-your own, Photoshop, VB, Web Design, trying my hand with digital cameras and camcorders, etc. I've got a long way to go with these before I can consider myself a nerd, so I make plenty of mistakes and can get well frustrated at times.


OOps! missed again!! One other thing I like doing is a little bit of archery. I have been doing this for about twelve years now and have come to the conclusion that I will never make the Olympic team. However, the club I shoot at is a a fairly easy going one, that is one without a lot of rigorous rules, so shooting is as much an enjoyable evening out as it represents a target to aim for. If you would like to know more about archery, then try the Grand National Archery Society (GNAS) website or the website for club I go to.

I like animals in general (this does not include insects, etc). One type of animal I particularly like is dogs, at least most dogs. I remember the first dog I had was a mongrel pup on my 5th birthday, an awfully long time ago now. The last dog we had was a Golden Labrador, mainly because the rest of my family wanted it. The only problem with Labradors is that they are forever hungry, turn your back and they'll eat anything in sight, including your dinner if they can reach it. Also they leave hairs everywhere! But they are the most friendly animal where children are concerned.

Personally I like big dogs, the bigger the better. A labrador is about the smallest type of dog I think I would be happy with.
