In these dark days of profiteering, prejudice, and persecution

It seems to me that what people most need is a source of inspiration - a light, if you will, shining in the darkness, leading toward a brighter, better future. Something arcane and powerful whose mystery is exceeded only by its power. (Yes, I’m joking…)

So I started a blog. Just so you know…

I’m a recovering event photographer* writer and general geek for science & technology. I Mod as Gazumped’ on Evernote and Reddit forums. In former lives I managed teams in marketing, PR and customer support in law, finance and IT.

I was an Insurance Underwriter - a good one I think; I’ve been on TV (a little) as a banking guru - before that bloke Martin Lewis even got started. He’s better at it.

I relax with SFF books, bad B films and good Islay whisky. I’m also pretty old.

Expect stuff here on tech, things affecting older people, the NHS, SFF books and grumpy opinions, all of it written in a fairly light-hearted way.
