Evening everyone

Like Askartus I have some spent some time looking through the informative posts in this great forum.

I'm Alan, 45, from Leigh on Sea in Essex. I have worked in exports for 28 years and am currently employed by an international bank in London.

I have been married for 13 years and we have 2 wonderful children.

I have been fortunate enough to have flown over 200,000 miles, with extensive travel to Southern Africa, Europe and the USA mainly by economy but ever increasingly through business class.

I look forward to learning more through this forum.
