ABOUT THIS RESEARCHER

Created: 20th April 2003 
Er... Hello
One of the things at which I'm not that brilliant is describing myself.

Where does one begin? I guess I'll just keep tapping away at the keyboard and see what emerges.

My choice of nickname was arrived at through some incredible ignorance. At first I selected the name 'Nonesuch': I'd once seen it on the base of a statue in the Welsh village of Portmeirion and thought it quite singular. As the word hadn't entered my vocabulary at the time, I foolishly took it to mean 'of no importance'. This is what I was striving to impart with my nickname, since I don't believe I have anything that stupendous to offer the world — I just do what I do.

So before submitting it I checked its official definition and found myself mildly shocked that I was apparently holding myself up as a 'person or thing that is unrivalled'. This would not do: I am 100% rivalled. I therefore sought another name that conveyed this and found 'Nonentity' to be the most pleasing.

As for my personal details, you don't really need to know that much. I am a 5'10" single man in his thirties, who resides in the South Western part of the UK with three cats and a dog. I work for a company that sells car parts to the motor trade and, thankfully to a lesser extent, the general public.

My interests are reading, computers (more specifically web design), digital photography/video and the cinema (which also means a burgeoning DVD collection). I also used to buy CDs in the days when people wrote songs.

My dislikes are most sports, Radio 1 and misuse of the apostrophe.

JOURNAL

This is where any Journal Entries would appear, if this Researcher had made any. Unfortunately they haven't managed to write anything, which is a shame because their Journal is where they could tell everyone what they've been up to. Is your Journal empty too? If so, this is how it'll appear to other Researchers who visit your Personal Space.
