I hate “About Me” pages.  But they seem to be necessary. So here goes.

I’m Lyle, and I’ve been writing this rubbish since August 2002. And somehow it’s still going on.

I live just outside Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk with my partner,  (who doesn’t have a name on here, for reasons described below) two Labradoodles, and three cats. It makes for an interesting life. Oh, and I currently work in London, doing a daily commute of about 85 miles each way. (75 by car in an hour-ish, 10 by Tube in – um – an hour-ish) That makes for long days, and a very knackered Lyle – which is why D4D isn’t currently being updated as often as it should be.

Before that, up to the end of 2010, I lived in Norfolk with Herself, and her two insane animals – Hound and Psycho Cat. There’s a theme developing here, isn’t there?

When things went wrong, a lot of hassle was caused by me writing stuff on here, and people took offence at what had been written. So I swore I wouldn’t do so again. As a result of that and the commuting, D4D has dried up a bit at the moment. I’m sure it’ll change over time, though.

Other than that, there’s always a lot going on in my world. Some of it is irrelevant, some of it concerns business plans etc., and can’t be discussed, but the rest of it is pretty much open game.
