I am a climber, runner (with a Collie), cyclist and swimmer. I was running a small (but perfectly formed) analytics company now employee owned to mark my retirement. Commute between the Highlands and The Borders, campaign for Scottish independence, bake bread and occasionally dabble in bad art.

I winge about a lot - the environment, bad governance and stupidity but do try to provide a wee bit of evidence and highlight good news.
