Hi to all you twirlers and HoP lovers!
I'm Malcolm's latest addition to the HoP family with my first day of work here at HoP today (Mon 16th Oct 06) and I see lots of fun ahead (as well as a huge learning curve)! I am totally new to poi so I hope I don't make too many dumb comments!
A bit about me then:
George McNeur, male, age... "enough"!
Family: wife Heather, 3 boys 12, 13, & 15.
Location - Christchurch, NZ.
working career: Electronics Engineering - 15yrs RNZAF, 6 yrs in Test/Manufacturing and 6.5 yrs network products R&D.
You can find out a teensy bit more about me/what I've done at these sites:
https://kiwisoldier.150m.com/now.htm#george
https://kiwionice.150m.com/
and my current main interest outside of work and family: https://aotearoakendo.150m.com/
So, looking forward to the journey, and meeting all you guys 'n girls.
cheers
George
