Wigan is more famous for it's Pier (of George Orwell fame) and Pies, which we are all supposed to eat endlessly, and don't. These days it is also famous for it's Premier League football team and top-flight Rugby League team

Stuart spent most of his working life in 'IT' but is now partially retired (the rest of the time he still runs his small web design business - magentasteel.com) and Darryl does contract work for an Optician.

Our main interests seem to revolve around computers, Darryl loves building and rebuilding computers and is never happy with the specification of the machine he is using - no matter what it is! There is always something else to add or some setting to tweak. Whereas Stuart is definitely more interested in the software and 'what it does' side of things - and keeping our little network running so all the computers around the house, which currently number 7, can talk to each other and to our cable ethernet connection to the internet

We are also interested in music and have eclectic and differing tastes. Right now, whilst composing this page, we are listening to Kylie but 10 minutes ago it was Fleetwood Mac.

Well, we are (quite obvious really) Stuart and Darryl. We live in a small village about 5 miles from Wigan which, if you've no idea where it is, is about 20 miles west of Manchester and halfway between there and Liverpool. Still none the wiser? Well it's in the north-west of England and about 20 miles from the coast.
