If you feel like it post below what you do, whether you'd recommend it or not etc etc.

For safety reasons please don't post who you work for and where or which school you go to etc.

Many of you know I work in small architects practice where I have worked now for nearly 5 years, i used to be a part time firefighter as well, but I was made redundant when they removed our fire engine.

as an architect I have a very varried work portfolio to plough through, designing anything from a small house extension to a multimillion pound commercial development. I specialise in designing for fire safety and interested in eco design. I am a technical architect where I am more concerned with the practicalities of how it is built rather than how it will look.
