Hi,

Today is my second day at Canonical. I've joined the Desktop Team and 
I'm absolutely delighted to be here!


I'm working from home in Hampshire, England and connected to the 
Internet via shortwave radio. My recent professional background has 
been in large scale server infrastructure and the transmission and 
analytics of "black box" flight data. In my spare time I'm a MATE 
Desktop core team member and the lead for Ubuntu MATE.


I am a massive fan of film and cinema, all genres except horror. I'm a 
podcaster and co-present the Ubuntu Podcast. I like to unwind by 
cooking good food :-)

Martin, wonderful to see you on this side of the fence! A hearty welcome 
to you.

Welcome Martin! I was kinda hoping you'd say "cooking good food and
enjoying it with some mate" ☺  Hope that desktop issues are easier to
decode than black box data.
