Former UK based #supplychain professional (inventory analysis and procurement) working in pharma, oil exploration, managed print, secure KVM's, wine and railway rolling stock who got fed up with countless hours commuting, business travel and fighting finance and marketing departments, while getting increasingly despondent with living in a small box with a handkerchief sized garden.

Now living in Ireland, surrounded by chickens, dogs and a grumpy cat, fabricating and fixing things for people.
