Hello World!

My name is David Clifford Jones, and I was born on 25th January 1982. Sole child of Pauline Jones and Clifford Harold Jones. I lived in a quiet street in the suburbs of Surrey and spent a very happy childhood there. I attended the local Primary school (Forresters) and then moved onto Wilson's Grammer School up the road, built on the original London Aerodrome. where I stayed from the age of 11 to 18. It was here that I passed all my GCSE's and continued on to A Level's. Wilson's sparked my interest in technology and I was supported in the building of many projects through the years eventually leading to the building of machines for television combat and competition. I even ran my own Robotic combat event for 3 years called Robots@War.

After my A Levels, I left home and moved to Loughborough, Leicestershire to attend University. I studied Industrial Design & Technology, in the Department of Design & Technology. I studied there for 4 years including a year out placement at Artform International, working as a Junior designer and CAD technician. Once qualified, I then returned to do a PGCE course (teaching qualification) in the Teacher Education Unit. I even left with some letters after my name ... BA (Hons) + DPS, PGCE.

My lasting memory of university however will be the friends that I made whillst I was there, and the fun that I had, especially within the Canoe Club. University is an education in life, not just an education in academicism! (yes I know that's not a word!)

I have moved house 3 more times, and am now living with Sarah (Jones too!) still in Loughborough. Whillst my mother has moved
