I like traffic lights, really I do.

I like frith6, which is why we got married in 1989. I like fine wine and good conversation. I like friends, and I like messing about with computers.

I like books, particularly science-fiction (all I have time to read these days), but I've been known to read almost anything from Jane Austen to M.F.K. Fisher or Georges Perec. I also enjoy listening to music: jazz, baroque, rap, world and acid jazz in particular. If that list is particular.

With frith6, I share two children, both boys, Max was born in October 1997 and Fraser in December 2000.

I am on the board of Parents Centres New Zealand, an organisation dedicated to providing education for parents and parents to be.
