I have had a varied and interesting career. I was taught to work hard, being in a farming family. I grew up in a time when you fixed things rather than replace them. You make stuff rather that buy it and you respected your neighbours and helped those you could. Money was not everything, contacts and networking with other skilled people was. I had a very active adventure life; canoeing, kayaking, climbing etc. Now I am older and not as fit so more time spent doing my hobbies.
