I am a Law Costs Draftsman. Before that I was a Computer Programmer for a couple of decades. Before that I was at university (University College London) and, even before that, school (Haileybury).

I am married with one daughter. My wife is also a Law Costs Draftsman. We live in Amersham.

My interests include reading (a lot) and listening to music (loud). I also manage to watch a surprising amount of TV.

My birthday is September 4 which turns out to be surprisingly public, since I submitted it to various newgroups a long while back.

Cats

We are a cat-friendly family. We currently have four:

  • Bramble, male, black, laid-back
  • Poppy, female, tortoiseshell, not laid-back at all
  • Daisy, female, black, bossy
  • Mimi, female, black-and-white, settling in nicely

but we're working on getting back to our former, and more proper, state of five. Bramble and Poppy were from Cats Protection. Daisy came from a family up the road who moved to New Zealand. We acquired "Mimi", an RSPCA rescue, on New Year's Eve 2003.

RIP

Claims to "fame"

Some clutching at straws here, but if I can get an article or two out of it ... :-)

Things that make me cross

LAUNCHcast

I was until recently a big fan of LAUNCHcast, an Internet radio service provided by Yahoo. Unfortunately they've now managed to annoy me sufficiently that if I can find an equivalent service I'm bailing out faster than a cat out of a washing-machine.

Useful Stuff (I hope)

Other Wikipedias

I maintain alternate personas at

Other languages

I also have accounts on several other wikipedias, just for a laugh since I speak not a word of any of these languages:

Emergency

I have created an emergency persona at OpenFacts (http://openfacts.berlios.de/index-en.phtml?title=User:Phil_Boswell) for those horrible periods when Wikipedia is unavailable.

I have also created an account at Wikinfo (http://www.wikinfo.org/wiki.phtml?title=User:Phil_Boswell) where I was most startled to discover I already had a User Page without knowing it.

Discrepancy in naming

I have no idea why I used a space in my name some places and not others, but there's probably some deep psychological meaning which would scare the crap out of me if I ever found out.
