Unfortunately had to take early retirement last year but was a Senior Lecturer in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. The dreaded cancer I'm afraid is the cause but I'm really enjoying myself on sunny days with my top down.

Oil & gas, work for a company based in Dubai.

trigg35, I started off, in my youth, driving diggers and fork lifts, and I still jump at the chance to have a go on them now.
Had a go at fork lift racing once, with the forks off, just had to be careful not to turn them over. Great fun.
