New Technical Staff - Please welcome Richard

[DHutch]

Following the announced vacancy a few weeks ago I would like to welcome our newest member of the CanalWorld staff.

 

A relatively new member of the site Richard (RichM, formally ArmatageShanks) brings a wealth of experience as a IT professional, including launching and maintaining a successful forum similar to our own. Richard has kindly offered his time to support the running of the site to put back into the valuable resource we have here and takes over as our technical lead with immediate effect.

 

Richard will manage the server-side operation of the site, as well well as dealing with day to day technical enquiries and the future development of forum.

 

 

Thanks

 

Daniel

Site Owner

The egg jokes were on the other thread.

Good one RichM Sounds like the ideal chap. Armatage Shanks (Rugely)? you must know a lot about toilets too. Carry on at your convenience.
