HISTORY :

July 2002 :

Moved to Frankfurt, Germany on the 3rd June 2002 to seek fame and fortune !

June 1st 2002 :

After 8 years of loyal service I was made redundant by APC (American Power Conversion), it amazes me how these American Corporations survive, after buying a relatively sound UK based telecommunications power company in April 2000 (Advance Power which I had worked for for 6 years) they manage to totally destroy the foundations of it within 2 years causing the closure at the end of June 2002, it has to be said no one can do it better than the yanks !!

April 2002 :

Had my assignment in Singapore terminated abruptly by the company that I work for, so had to quickly pack up and plan to move back to the UK. 

Jan 2002 :

2002 is going to be another busy year, but we are trying to get back to the UK for Debbie's Birthday at the end of April. So we will see you then for a few beers. !!! :o) (spoke too soon, busy yes it sure is, but not through planning though, loosing my job didn't really figure when I wrote this statement, Oh well, onward and upward !!)

March 2002 :

Malaysian F1 Grand Prix, yes we were there. Fantastic is a word that falls a long way short of explaining the experience.

March 2001 :

We left our cottage, family and friends behind in Collingham, UK and moved to Sunny Singapore in March 2001, I have spent much of my time traveling with my work throughout Asia and Debbie has settled into a new lifestyle that doesn't involve working, although she keeps reminding everyone that looking after me is harder !!

May 2000 :

The posting of the now world famous Birthday party pictures held at Primrose Cottage (See GALLERY)

April 2000 :

The arrival of thommo.co.uk on the world wide web, initially an idea to get "with it" and make my mark on the internet, and an outlet for my poor artistic talents,
