I am a commercial and Finance Director of a Pharmacy service support business. I have a degree in Auto Engineering at Loughborough, used to build F1 engines then took a 'wrong' turn 15 years ago and became a chartered accountant and spent years in Corporate Finance  :ashamed:

But it does pay for my hobbies  :wink:
