About
This is my website.
It started off as an experiment in 1996, and it's still here!
It doesn't get updated much, but you can also find me on
Instagram and other social networks.Bio
I was born in Edinburgh, Scotland and grew up in Luxembourg, Luxembourg.
I moved back to Edinburgh for university and later lived in London.
I'm currently living in Edinburgh for the third time!
My employers have described me as a software engineer. IMDB describes me as an actor, writer and composer. I describe myself as peckish.

People will be rushing to watch [classic Doctor Who story referenced in this week's episode], but I watched it a few weeks ago so I'm already wondering how [villain] escaped [their grisly fate]

It's hilarious to me that Dot and Bubble came out while the "I'm looking for a man in finance, trust fund, 6'5, blue eyes" sound is big on TikTok, because it manages to make it sound even worse than it already does
