Hi

[vonHolt]

Just quick hello to everyone, I've a couple of small all grain brews (1US Gal/4.5 Lts) under my belt, and I've paid up for membership today.

I'm looking forward to attending some of the meet-ups & possibly maybe even entering a competition one day.

Cheers.

Hi,

It's a bit complicated...France mainly, but I visit Dublin regularly. I'm Irish, moved here ~10 years ago. I'm in Blacrock (near the Dark Horse) quite a lot (at least once a month).

Welcome to the site, and we'll see you at the next meet in the Dark Horse!

Any where near Normandy as I would love to taste some of there naturally fermeted sweet ciders!

[Its a cider maker thing]

Hi,

Nope, I'm right down south, between the Black Mountains and the Pyrenees. Nearest "big" city is Toulouse (about an hours drive away).

Cheers.

Welcome vonHolt.
Cool avatar.
Artist?

[vonHolt]

Hi johnrm,

Thanks, however I'm definitely NOT an artist 
I'm in the more down to earth software engineering space.

[johnrm]

Excellent, bu you'd best elaborate as we need IT input now and then here.
He hee!

[vonHolt]

20+ years - Worked as technical analyst to principal consultant from everywhere from Microsoft, Oracle, All the "Big 5", and clients in Banking, Telecomms, Semicondector & Manufacturing.  Experience is across the board,  time in Development, QA, systems troubleshooting / performance & scalability, Project management, Team Lead - basically the entire spectrum of large scale systems development & deployment.

Brewing is my yoga...

[johnrm]

You've certainly blown me out of the water!
Any coding in php in there?

[vonHolt]

Yep, "internal" tools only though - your bog standard CRUD apps on a LAMP stack, but nothing to a level where I'd consider it professional enough to be at a comercial level of quality or security.

[johnrm]

I read that as 'Expert'!
Well throw to the lions one of the days, next time we need a bit of site integration.
