I live near Cambridge, England, which I always think of as the lesser University city, being an Oxford man. I've only recently moved here though, from the old market town of Banbury, in North Oxfordshire. The cross is now a roundabout. Until last year I worked for Rover Group, the last surviving major British car manufacturer, where I developed control software for fuel injection systems.
Rover group employs less people than it used to.
Whether the Phoenix consortium can save it waits to be seen. My new employer is Pi Technology which is part of Pi Group, who were recently sold to Ford. I still design fuel injection control software. Back in Banbury I was heavily involved with the local Christian church. I was involved with the music group, the drama group, the parish church council and various other aspects of St. Paul's Anglican church, Warwick Road, Banbury.
