Much closer here; Oxford, England. (Still 350 miles away, though...)

That's the most the Exclusion Principle will allow, IIRC.

High Wycombe - ah, the joys of the M40!)

Bah.. I live in the Delphi developer centre of the universe, ie

Adelaide, South Australia.
I reckon (yeah ok, it is just a guess) that per capita, the Delphi
developer ratio here is the highest of anywhere in the world. <g>

Fortunately there is good circumstancial evidence to back you up Dave. For

one, I live in Adelaide as well. Give the numbers in this thread so far we
are already ahead per capita!

Sounds appealing, both the work (I dropped out of research many years back)

and the locale; I only get into Oxford centre evenings and weekends as a
rule, and it must be very nice to be able to just pop in over lunch or
straight after work!

It's getting marginally more enjoyable now the light and sunny mornings are

here, but it would be so much better if all those other damn drivers would
just stay off my route. :-)

I could probably hazard a guess. :-) Rather than commit personal details

to Googled posterity that is something probably best kept to email - if you
mail me at ian kirk1 at ntlworld com (dots in the gaps) I will get back to
you.

Thanks - ntl's up to it is usual tricks at the moment (i.e. being {*word*99}) so I

can't access anything via web mail; will get a reply off as soon as it
starts playing ball.
