Your c.v

Traffic , a VXR Vectra or T5 around persecuting innocent drivers, raising funds through the back door for the govenment whilst avoiding real Police work like catching burglars and rapists.

Bike-wise, I love bodging, have done the usual servicing stuff and have changed a rear shock to a GSXR one. Chain and sprockets also a recent first time done deal.

Oh yeh, They have guns! Thanks..

I'm a mechanic with a huge red Snap-On toolchest packed with expensive big-boys toys, and they're currently sitting next to my bench in a Triumph/Yamaha dealer's workshop...let's leave it at that

I can trim cars in leather, repair cars/vans/trucks, fit sunroofs/windscreens to cars/vans/trucks and all manner of electrical stuff to cars and bikes. I have a class 1 HGV, PSV and tracked vehicle licences. I can sell (sales manager for 10 years). I can TIG weld, lay carpets and fit kitchens to professional standards, even though I may take 3 times as long as a pro. I can kill people (ex-forces).

You could say I'm pretty good at practical stuff and a handy bloke to know.

It's just as well I'm practical, I have a kind of dyslexia when it comes to numbers, a row of figures may as well be a bowl of spaghetti to me.

I can’t be too specific, but I currently work with other scientists designing/developing/analysing/evolving artificial intelligence systems for the military. Perhaps sounds a little more exciting than it actually is!!

I have an idea where you work now.

Do they call it "The Fort" locally?

im an a level student

will try my hand at most things, did most of the rebuild on this

icluded stripping to the bottom end, replace pistons and barrels, regrind valves, stripping the clutch and primary drive

all brakes completely overhauled, rewired, new shocks and forks rebuilt, tyres fitted by hand, most nuts and bolts turned on the lathe in the shed.

tanks sprayed by my father using aerosols .

also built this guitar prett much from scratch, only buying a ready made item when it was cheaper to do so
