Hello! This is the user page for Gjp23 (real name Greg). I currently live in Reading, though have previously lived in Stafford, Cambridge, Bath and Erlangen.

My interests include cycling, classical music, real ale, and industrial and scientific history. I occasionally work at Claverton Pumping Station.

Instead of taking the time to write more detailed information here, I have included a bunch of those infernal userboxes which may give a very brief insight into my thoughts.
