About me:

After qualifying as a Chartered Accountant with an international firm of chartered accountants, I worked extensively in systems and financial management within the television industry with the BBC and ITV and broadened that experience generally in financial management, contract negotiations and legal and business affairs.

I followed that as a self employed accountant in systems and project work with a wide variety of organizations and joined the Civil Service after spending two years as part of the team implementing a new computerized financial accounting system within one of the Government  Agencies

I am particular anxious to help older people in computers as they were not introduced to them early or, as now, in childhood. Knowing how to access a computer and all its facilities will open a new and exiting world to you because, remember, as each week passes not knowing about computers becomes more and more disadvantageous.
