| Welcome |
| Here you'll find my thoughts on anything and everything. Google will force me to "upgrade" my existing site to their new standards quite shortly. Several of my pages are broken when automatically migrated, so I figured I should move some things here while I decide whether to carry on using Sites to host my information. |

| About Me |
|
Welcome to my home page. My interests include the following :- My faith - Christianity. My Family Computing (especially programming and database development - PHPrunner, Visual BASIC / VBA, Paradox/OPL, PHP, Javascript, and formerly VB, QB, Psion OPL, and various languages on the Atari ST and even older computers) Anything to do with Science and/or Engineering, Metallurgy Boating Photography Walking, sightseeing (see above). Star Trek (but not to the extent of learning Klingon or anything OTT!). My favourites are in this order : TNG, Voyager, TOS, DS9. Still not sure about Discovery but Picard was pretty good. Films / Cinema. My favourite films are, in no particular order Bladerunner, Star Trek : First Contact, Dances with Wolves, The Last Samurai, and the first Star Trek reboot. I'm a Chartered Engineer, and work in the Oil & Gas industry as a Materials & Corrosion Engineer. I live in Lowestoft, England. |

I don't often advertise stuff on my site, but I thought I'd share this one because it's such a good deal. I've been looking for something capable of running a 1kW kettle but capable units are normally over £1000. I've signed up to this kickstarter because early adopters can get one for just $499 delivered. The kickstarter finished on 12th June though, so there isn't long if you want to join me. |

| wims.org.uk Becomes Main Site for all Welding-Related File Downloads |

In future I'm going to separate all my welding utilities out from my hobby-related ones, and post all new ones at wims.org.uk. I've recently added a spreadsheet to conduct ferrite calculations mased on Schaeffler, WRC 1992, and DeLong methodolgy there - a big improvement on the Scaheffler one posted here. |
