In the van at at the C&CC site at Wolverley, just outside Kidderminster. I like it here. Bright but muggy this morning. Got a reply to my email to Ian Roberts about the AK-200's in Ed's Shed. Put Ian in touch with Ed and got a confimation from Ed. Did my "Hospital Design" post on ebme. Went out for a run at 12:30. Down the tow-path to Stourport-on-Severn and back. Still humid and found myself wishing it would rain! Back by 14:00. Got a call from Tony Dowman later moaning about slim pickings from Durbin!

About Me
- Name: Greybeard
After forty years working in the engineering support of medical equipment, and in new hospital projects both in the design office and "at site", I now consider myself semi-retired. Following army service in Hong Kong, UK, Germany and Saudi Arabia, I worked in Saudi Arabia (a further four times), Nigeria, Jordan, Oman (twice) and the UK Health Service. My earning skills have included hands-on installation, repairs, maintenance, inspections and technical support of medical equipment. Together with advising on biomedical engineering generally, planning equipment layouts, producing equipment listings, writing specifications, and assisting architects etc. These days I live as simply and cheaply as I can, and (as far as possible) on my own terms, keeping my hand in by repairing or refurbishing medical equipment or doing inspections and maintenance work, sometimes for charity groups. But what I enjoy most is developing computer software, as a quirky and obsessive coder happy to be immersed in thorny problems for months at a stretch. "Free as a bird", and without any permanent address (generally moving on from time to time), I still jog as often as I can.
