I was born in Morley Yorkshire but brought up in Blackpool Lancashire. Spending most of my school life ambling along, I was eventually 'found out' and kicked out of education at 20. By that time I had managed to get a HND in Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing, had a lot of laughs and met some great people. After that getting a job with British Aerospace as a systems analyst and provided 24x7 support for all their manufacturing systems. As a whole the IT capability was 'on-sourced' to and American company (CSC) and after a total of 16 years I decided to try a different tack. So I left the comfort, and boredom, of a permanent job and set up on my own as an IT Consultant and have managed to get by for 9 years. Late 2013 a friend of mine introduced me to property investing and I went on a Quick start course and am currently on MM16 I have a beautiful wife, Joyce, and two wonderful children, Eleanor 19 and Connor 18, and we live in Chorley Lancashire.
