About this Member

I live on the edge of the Peak District with my
wife, Sally, and 4 cats. I work at UMIST,
as an RA researching into image processing
systems for removing atmospheric haze from
unmanned aircraft image footage.

I'm a huge fan of old sitcoms and a supporter
of public transport, so that's where you'll see me
most in DooYoo. I also hang around with the
bunch of ne'erdowells that call themselves
uk.railway on usenet.

My favourite site is a bit of a cheat - it's my
wife's needlecraft business!
