Rob, Alice, Hazel And Leo In 100 Words Each Meades Family

This page last updated: 22 April 2011

Rob Rob is a Welsh electronic engineer with no out-of-control beard (anymore).

Interests include science fiction, beer, moths, marine aquariums, lizards (and therefore locusts). Work is basically a hobby.  He and Alice were married in Hawaii on 25 November 95.

He has worked for British, Japanese and American firms, but most enjoyable was the 10 years spent at TTPCom (a leading supplier of cellular modem technology) until the Americans bought it and broke it up. He's since started Qasara with a band of guys who simply don't want to be under the direct control of others any more.

Since early 2009 he and Alice have been separated but they remain a family.

Alice Alice was born in Sheffield and went to University in Birmingham where she met Rob.

After graduating, she worked with computers in London; first for the CEGB cum National Power, then for a firm of solicitors.

Her current job is as housewife, mother and school dinner lady. She also does some voluntary work at Leo's school and a local nursery school.

Alice spends her free time reading fantasy & science fiction, gardening, line dancing and attempting to breed locusts.  She is also a member of twitter.

Since early 2009 Alice and Rob have been separated but they remain a family.
