About
I have been a business analyst, training advisor to young people, Intranet analyst, kitchen porter, painter and decorator, babysitter, wedding photographer, student of drama, shop assistant manager, company director and ecommerce consultant. I am still some of these things at the moment. I was once a bouncer but that didn’t last for very long. Problem was everyone knew I was a drama student, so I got called ‘The Hard Bard’.
Currently working in IT in London, I have developed a passion for international development, environment and technology, and am studying International Studies with the OU. I first got on a plane at the age of 29 and have since travelled extensively, and just spent a year project managing a youth development program in Cambodia, a fantastic place.
I run a blog on environment, development, technology and sustainability at www.bigwideworld.org.
I’m a member of the Suffolk Humanist and Secularist group, a UK regional group of freethinkers, and manage their website at www.suffolkhands.org.uk.
This blog is about study, the news, work, plans, whatever else. If you found it by accident, sorry if it doesn’t make much sense and no, there are no nudey pics of Kerry Katona here, so move along.
