Further Information

Alan was a C & I Engineer in his NEI days.  In 1996 he moved into those fancy Motorway signs at Control SysyemsVMS.  Massive redundancies in 2003 at VMS (only himself!) caused a move to North Tyneside Council as an Engineering Co-ordinator.  He's actually based at Newcastle City Council & monitors the performance of  a private company who are replacing and maintaining all the street lights in Newcastle and North Tyneside over the next four years under a PFI.
