Welcome, Dear Reader
- Hello, I’m Paul Beesley, a Computer Science student and part time developer. Originally hailing from near London, I currently live in the wonderful city of Durham in the UK where I’m at university. I’m now 21 and will be entering my third year of studies in October. I often introduce myself an “not your average computer scientist” – I’m open, enthusiastic and I have plenty of other hobbies! I’m an avid reader, a walker, a runner, a music lover, a camper, a photographer and more besides. I’m very active with clubs and societies in Durham and will hopefully be delving more into the sporting side this year. Music is also one of my passions. I’m a self-confessed audiophile and listening to music is my main way to relax. Generally I prefer (light) rock, jazz and classical with a side serving of electronic – everything except modern trashy pop and rap, basically. I’m more at home on a computer keyboard than a musical one but, despite lacking the ‘musical gift’, one of my goals this year is to make some decent progress with the acoustic guitar. My other major hobby is photography and there are plenty of opportunities in and around Durham to use my camera. The gallery holds a collection of my favourite photos, minus the worst mug shots!
