Samulus's Home Page

Welcome to my home page. Maybe one day I'll fill it with something more interesting, but for now you'll just have to put up with a bit of info about me, where I'm from and what I do.

I come from the Wirral, which is the bit on the West coast of England sticking out between Liverpool and North Wales. It has the river Mersey on one side and the river Dee on the other side, which makes it a fully-qualified peninsula even if it is quite small. I intend to write a Guide Entry about it one day, if only to set the record straight with a friend of mine who once said he thought it sounded like a small rodent...
(But don't hold your breath, I may be some time...)

My interests include classic cars and kit-cars, salsa music and dancing, listening to most other kinds of music, playing the piano and far too many other things to list here and now. Oh, and I love almost everything to do with Spain... the people, the places, the music... Maybe I'll live there one day...

I currently live in Sheffield, where I work for a company called Dialogue Communications. I live here by accident; I came here to study at Sheffield University and never went back. I do like it, although I miss being near the coast. Maybe it's not as pretty as Edinburgh or York for example, maybe it doesn't quite have the night life of cities like Manchester or London, but it's also not (quite) as cold as Edinburgh in the winter, isn't as dirty as Manchester or London, and you can still get a good pint without having to take out a mortgage... so a night out doesn't break the bank. Also, the Peak District is right on the doorstep, providing a nice quiet retreat where you can escape from the hustle and bustle of city-life.

My dad and I have built a Royale Sabre, which is a 1930s style open-top tourer made from parts from a Ford Granada on a steel box-frame chassis with GRP (fibre-glass) and aluminium body panels.
If you're interested, take a look at my photos and visit the Royale Owners' Club website for more info.

At the university, I am still involved with the Salsa & Merengue Society, who now have a cool new website.
You can also see their old website at http://www.shef.ac.uk/~salsa.
