About Me
Jock is based in Oxford, UK, where he has been settled now for more than a decade. By day he works supporting computer facilities for administrators at Oxford Brookes University, by night, to pay the rent, he looks after a hall of residence of 550 mostly first year students. In what's left of his life he is promoting an innovative mechanism for providing affordable housing and other property assets called Community Land Trusts, and has been a Liberal Democrat city councillor on Oxford City Council. He probably thinks too much.
The wicked backspin caught you off guard. How will you play it off without losing your footing?
After a break for another strong gin!
