Welcome to my site

First let me say thanks for stopping by my site. My name is David Hanson-Graville and I am a IT consultant working in the UK. Let me make it clear, I am passionate about technology and specifically .net and its various forms. I've programmed in a range of langages, but I can say, I am now at my happiest when coding with c#. I hope my blog is an enjoyable & educational read and please feel free to email me at David.Hanson@OnTheBlog.net if you have any questions.

Having attended the Alt.net UK conference a few weeks ago I am disappointed by the fact that I cannot make the US event. There's going to be some great people there and the chance to discuss topics with them would have been great.

I am making sense of my decision using the following.

  • Its expensive to head over to the US just for a conference.
  • I am  getting married this year and need to save some money.
  • The "Mrs" gets jealous and thinks its a holiday.
  • There will be other events.

With that I rest my case.
