Obligatory Stupid Grin™
Lol-asg.png 39 / m / 54,-2

Who I am:

I am 27 year-old father-of-two, originally from Cwmbran in South Wales, but now based in Carlisle, Cumbria

I'm currently studying to become a Learning Disabilities Nurse.


Back-story... (or something)

I'm a long-time reader of xkcd, and saw The Algorithm when it was originally published on the site a few years ago. However, I was unaware of the actual phenomena of GeoHashing until my lunch-break on 5th March 2012, when myself and fellow student nurse Matingslinkys stumbled across the Wiki whilst surfing the web and decided we were going to make this a hobby!
