DaveSW in a Nutshell
I'm currently studying Financial Economics in Swansea University.
I have four A levels, grades A to B (English, French, Geography and Maths), one AS level (grade A) in IT, and 11 GCSEs grades A* to A.
After uni I work for my Dad's company, providing IT services, web design, PC repair etc.
In my spare time I enjoy helping in our Church, Waveski Surfing, Running, Swimming, Volleyball, Tennis, Badminton, Football, and landscaping the garden by putting trellises everywhere!

It's slightly unusual for a pure CSS site - yet it works in all the browsers I have access to - if it doesn't work in yours, let me know via pm ;)

One of my friends asked me to look at his pc today. It was logging in, then logging straight back off again.
It turned out, he'd downloaded a file called 'funny.exe' via MSN, which changed the login program his registry pointed to...
