Hi all,
Good to see you all.
Been out of full-time IT paid employment since 1996, working partly on websites, mainly as an Alexander Technique teacher, which I still do one evening a week. Arrival of first child, Sam, in 2005 and emigration from the UK to Australia meant working for someone else again, and getting up to speed first in Python/Apache/Django/PostgreSQL, then .NET/MS SQL in a little under a year!
I'm just about getting there, but my expertise is really still in back pain...
For fun I like tennis, music (Ligeti, Bach), skinny dipping (in Summer!) and never going near a glowing screen in the evenings.
Nick
