Munchkin, and have decided to say a little about myself. I was born in Paisley in 1974, spent the first eighteen months of my life in Beith in Ayrshire and then moved to Dumbarton in Dunbartonshire<footnote>Deliberate spelling. I wonder how long ago that got cocked up then?</footnote>. Rapidly approaching the age of eight my dad became one of the victims of Margaret Thatchers economic policies and we moved to Darvel, Ayrshire, where he took up running a newsagent. He finally got bored of that in 1992 and moved a whole mile away to become a producer of tartan tat, but at that point I moved to Glasgow to start University. Seven years later I finally left uni, having spent most of my time in the Sci-Fi society and not working on my physics/electronics/phaffing with PCs degrees, and moved to Guildford, Surrey<footnote>Over five hundred miles away</footnote> to start a proper job as an IT guy. I have now been ITing for two years and, much to my surprise, graduated last July as Doctor Munchkin, which comes with two days a year of Government sanctioned smugness. I have also recently acquired Canadian citizenship so that may well be my next step. I am obsessed with Sci-Fi (especially Dr. Who) and waste a lot of money on conventions.<br/>Oh yes, and I'm quite short rightly too.<br/> However, please feel free to peruse my links<LINK H2G2="A372773"> here</LINK>, although I haven't added anything new or exciting in ages.<BR />Also, if you are feeling particularly worried about something, may I recomend the government sanctioned <LINK H2G2="A372557">mystic</LINK>.
