Welcome To My Homepage

Right! I still haven't had my poor broken TI Extensa 600CD repaired and have suffered enough with this Compaq desktop machine! I am convinced it's responsible for all those grey hairs you can see ;-) I've built my own PC more or less from scratch - a lovely big tower case with a DFI Lanparty KT400A board. The humble AMD 2700+ processor being helped along by the 1Gb of RAM ;-)

I am reconstructing my page using CuteHTML from Globalscape. I tried with FrontPage but it just doesn't seem quite so simple somehow! My beloved Amigas - the A500 and A1200 are both gathering dust in the corner [sob!] but there just aren't enough hours in the day! %-) As a hardened Amiga nut though, I have bought Cloanto's Amiga Forever pack and installed it on this PC ;-) This is supposed to be that "better job of this Web page!" promised many moons ago ;-) Whilst I admit that the original wasn't that good, it did get me a wonderful correspondent in Bratislava ... Jenn! you can click here or read a bit further

I guess you might want to know a little about me. So ...

For the masochists amongst you, here is a picture of me. Don't say you weren't warned! For the easily confused, I'm the one on the far right! ;-D

Although living on my own, I am bossed horrendously by a gorgeous blonde girl ;-) Her name is Tinks and she is the most beautiful Birman, go on - tell my you don't love that cute beastie! :-) If you want to see more pictures of my beloved ratbag ;-) she has her own gallery at My MSN photo album

If this has inspired you to see more, or if you're just plain nosey ;-) feel free to check out my Flickr.com album

And now the other wonderful blonde in my life ... my darling Slovak angel Jenn! :-) so you read this far hmmm? ;-)

My birthday is on the 3rd of September, having slowly edged past that 40 year old mark ;-) and living in Stanmore, Middlesex - a now non-existent area in Great Britain.


I live in this top right hand corner just behind all those trees click here for a Street map
	and this is the view from my window as I sit at the computer (click for the full image)

I'm now registered as blind due to being blind in one eye with only limited vision in the other, following a playground accident when I was 6 years old. I don't let that stop me)! :-) and if you want the gory details ... well, there is an email link below ;-)

I was a Trustee for the Outsiders Trust charity which helps disabled people achieve integration with society through a variety of ways including lunch meetings each month in various parts of the country, occasional parties in London and Birmingham, telephone helpline for members and much more.. For more information on this, follow this Outsiders Club link to their excellent new site..

I hate viruses with a vengeance having been a victim of a particularly pernicious one on my Amiga and seeing friends falling victim to all the Outlook Address Book nasties recently ... :-( so here is a very useful link giving details of up to date virus information. Before you panic and e-mail all your friends to delete SULFNBK.EXE from your Windows directory, PLEASE also check for hoaxes at Symantec Antivirus Research Centre (SARC) Thank you! That should save me having to e-mail system files to a few unfortunate friends! J

Here are a few links to other pages I enjoy, some crafted by friends of mine. Enjoy!

Important Virus and Spyware information links
	If you are at all unsure about a process that is running in the Task Manager, type it's name in to the search box on the right and you will be told if it is a security risk ie: a virus, trojan or spyware.

Hawkm00n	An excellent site, especially if you share his interest in Strange Deaths.
CIX (now knows as Nextra)	In my opinion, the best Conferencing system around!
Pogo	The place that I seem to be spending so much time lately J I have met some wonderful people whilst playing Cribbage here, they are from all over the world, Canada, New Zealand, America, 40 miles away in Aylesbury! :-) I play in a league: Teammates for BanditsAndLovers team, and the team website is developing apace - click on their name above to have a look! J
MyLeague.com	The site that enables Cribbage Tournaments to be held every couple of hours! and provides lots of information on all the various teams and individuals involved.
Wordsteal	My favourite game at Uproar.com was Wordox - a form of Scrabble but not that easy! Unfortunately Uproar have dropped it :-( to the great sadness of myself and many others who enjoyed the game. This is where I was told is the successor to Wordox. It's a great Scrabble type of game. Here you can meet people, some great, some ... well the Internet is wide and varied after all! J

Feel free to anytime. It's always nice to get email that isn't Spam and I would appreciate your thoughts on these pages. I am hoping to get time to improve them further soon.

Until then, have fun and be good! J All the best, <HUGS>

Chris

Oh, and for all you miserable people out there ...
