Way's World

A (very) brief history of me, David Way


Apart from breaking my leg when I was one, my early youth was pretty much uneventful. When I was eleven, I went to Bournemouth School and left in 1988 to join Coopers of Wessex, a local wine & spirit merchants.  I left after a year to join a local stationery company, and I stayed there for the next 11 years, only to join another office supplies company! I've been there since July 2000, working in various roles from sales, to purchasing, to my current job in the furniture division.

My hobbies include playing the drums, photography, abseiling, and computers. I love eating pizzas (especially Pizza Hut & Dominos!), listening to Genesis, Pink Floyd & Rush, watching movies (especially Star Wars), and poking around on the internet. I also have another, more serious pasttime, but I'll leave you to work out what that is (some of the links in the menu bar on the right may give it away!)

I'm single, although I have been married - however, my ex quickly decided that marriage wasn't what she wanted (at least, not this marriage!), so we divorced exactly 2 years after the wedding! We didn't have any kids so it was reasonably painless, but I do miss Molly, our dog...

Molly, the daftest dog in the world!

My parents & sister live about 10 minutes away, with my newest niece, Esther Ruth. My brother lives in Dublin, with his wife Julie, and their two children, Lucy and and Adam (photo's below, and also in the links section on the right). I'll need to update the photos soon though, as there's another one on the way!
