Well this is it. My new home. When I’m not chilling at Twitter, A4U, Facebook or some other procrastination enhancing website I will be attempting to update this blog on a daily basis with a good mixture of content such as website reviews, my take on the headlines in web design/web development/seo/affiliate marketing and some personal stuff thrown in for good measure; most likely film reviews or photos from random adventures.

To get the ball rolling, I might as well introduce myself. The formal introduction is published here (in short, I’m a student with a job as marketing executive for an office supplies company and freelance web guy), so why not start things off with a list of five random things you might not know about me.

1. I’m a proud member of English Heritage. Despite living the student lifestyle with far too many drinking and party sessions, I also like a nice day out to an old castle and explore the history of certain landmarks.

2. I love driving and one of my life ambitions is to do the Gumball Rally. I did a student version a couple of years back in a Nissan Micra and it was possibly the most fun I’ve ever had in my life. Despite this, I don’t actually own my own car (I’m insured on the girlfriends’) and I haven’t got a clue what’s under the bonnet. I just love to pick up the keys and go for a good drive in the country.

3. I attended Wolverhampton Grammar School where alumni (or Old Wulfrunians as they are called by the school) include Mervyn King, the Governor of the Bank of England and Roy Wood.

4. I worked as a volunteer in a charity shop for a year and a half (PDSA). It was supposed to be for my Duke of Edinburgh award but I didn’t finish it. I did, however, spend almost every spare hour working in the shop and was offered the role of assistant manager, which I declined to complete my A-Levels. I’ve also worked as a paper boy, in Dunelm, Wickes, a social club, a jewellery shop and an(other) office supplies company.

5. We were allowed to drop one A-Level going into the second year of sixth form and ironically I dumped IT as I found it proposterously boring. Now my job is sitting at a computer all day, mostly coding!

Not particularly interesting just yet, but I have plenty of time ahead of me for new adventures! If you have questions that could yield more fascinating information, feel free to ask and I may include them in a future post!

In the meantime, I hope you’ll subscribe to the RSS feed for this blog and look forward to future, hopefully daily, posts.
