Personal and Family Information

Rob and the girls

I am 50 years old and live with my wife, Christine, son Robert (24) and daughter Vicki (21). We also share the house with 4 dogs (Snoopy, Whiskey, Rosie, Caffrie), 1 cat (Tabby) and 1 chipmunk (Alice). All the pets are female though Alice used to be Alvin until we bought a second chipper who became as obviously male as Alice became obviously female - hence the name change. Confused??

I work as a manager for an American scientific instrument company. We manufacture equipment used for HPLC, GC and Mass Spectrometry. I am  based in Manchester and run the LC/GC service group as well as looking after the MIS functions for the UK.

My son Robert works in software support for a large retail company and my daughter Vicki is a nurse. Christine has a full time job looking after the animals- as well as the dogs, cat and chipmunk.
