Woops, just realised that I haven't properly introduced myself yet.
My name is Richard Browne but most will easily decipher that from my posting ID as I rarely use a pseudonym on forums.
For my day job I own and am a director of a software testing consultancy called Guild Associates.
I am 45, married with a five (now nearly six) year old son named Jacob and live in a lovely rural setting not far from Chippenham, Wiltshire in the UK.
I have quite a few hobbies but my main ones are technical reading, keeping competition fit (Am a qualified martial arts instructor and a skiing instructor and I currently compete in mountain biking competitions), of course cars and driving and social activities (meeting new people etc).
The cars I currently own/have on order are as follows:
Mercedez ML 270 4x4 (I can see you grimacing!

), a Black air cooled 911 model 993 Carrera S (mostly kept in storage due to the UK climate

) and I have an A500 on order with the specification detailed in my signature.
