I studied graphic design at the art academy in The Hague. And since I'm not the kind of person to have my own business, I work for a newspaper. There I do dtp-work, mainly the ads for house brokers, not as creative as I would like, but satisfying enough...
Sometimes I wonder what the *** I'm doing, sitting at a desk, staring at a monitor all day long... haven't figured out what else I really would like to do... It is still not possible to earn money by just driving my Duc all day... :laugh:

Hi Guys
Purely a thought bod here. Went into the office when I left school and have been there ever since. I am now working on payroll and payroll systems. I can work with my hands, but this is limited to handywork around the house, plus the odd bit of spanner work on the 907. Still haven't worked up to those tappets yet though! still maybe one day.
My life seems to be boring compared to everyone else though.
All the best

I have something new to add ... a friend of mine recently started a regional motorcycle magazine called "Just Ride" (link here). Only two issues out, but I'll be writing for them, starting with issue #3. Not a paying gig, but that's just fine - getting to write about motorcycling? Definitely something I'll do for free.
I'd submitted a ride route for the 2nd issue, but not in time to make the presses; so that might appear in #3 along with an editorial. I'm pretty psyched. Their approach is basically that we're all brothers when we're on two wheels. They try not to lean towards any particular type of cyclist ... although in my opinion, it's been a bit cruiser-heavy. But that could be because the local cruiser contigent in the area is pretty thick. There are plenty of sportbikers, but they don't maintain the same sort of profile the cruisers like to. Probably because they're actually out riding. (D'oh! Did I say that out loud?)
Anyway, I'm sure I'll push it on you guys in the future ... just warnin' ya!

Just because you're not dead doesn't necessarily mean you're living, either.

Just some urban slang.
Documentries, historical and technical. I directed in F1 for 6 years, amongst other things, and bfore that I was a motor museum curator, so I like anything with an engine! You may have seen Speed Macines (originally on UK Channel 4) which I did the land spped prog and appeared in it too. Race cars, space flight, aircraft proper telly!! http://www.amazaon.co.uk and type in Leap into Legend in the search, that was my last book.
