I've been studying Egypt for 30 years now, and have been working out there regularly since 1979. I work as a curator in the British Museum, although in 2006-7 I was on leave and teaching at the University of Memphis. My research interests vary widely between the Old Kingdom and the Late Period, and my current fieldwork is in Luxor. To give you an idea of what I get up to when in Egypt, have a look at my web site devoted to the Tomb of Senneferi (TT99) at Luxor.	I got into computing through using IT in research, and I like to think that I'm one of the more computer-literate people in my field of study. Egyptology Resources was the first WWW server set up exclusively for Ancient Egypt.
Egypt does take up a lot of my spare time, often more than I would like; my other great interest is in Morris Dancing. I dance with the Devil's Dyke Morris Men who are based at Reach near Newmarket, and my wife Helen plays the melodeon. We can sometimes be spotted wearing unusual clothes and bells and possibly waving sticks around in streets and pubs in the Cambridge/Suffolk area. Try clicking on the photo of Helen -->

We live in Whaddon, near Royston. We have a cat and a collection of teddy bears of all shapes and sizes. Helen used to have two horses, but they both died in 2005-6.
