Tunnel Site. Link to a very interesting web site that I found purely by accident. Bob Hunts Portsdown Hill web site.

Welcome dear reader.

Thank you for taking the time to look at this site which is run by myself and maintained regularly by myself. Both of my web sites are currently being rebuilt. However, if you find a "dud link" anywhere please be patient as I shall be building pages very frequently during the Spring & Summer 2009. So any "dud" links may not be "dud" for long, but you could let me know anyway by contacting me at: mick@g6asj.co.uk The 2 sites should have a new look eventually. I have republished both of the sites in their unfinished state for now, but there will be some major upgrades to the pages sometime soon.

I am still learning how to design web sites and have been recently enrolled on a part time Web Design course at Highbury College in Portsmouth, using HTML and site construction.  These 2 sites will be updated when I learn more about composing web pages and when I have a bit more time. Some of the blank backgrounds will be changed for something more appealing sometime in the near future. This site was originally created with MS FrontPage in 1024 x 768 Resolution via my Vista Laptop and best viewed in this resolution. It will be updated fairly regularly although not as much as I would like to.

Why G6ASJ.co.uk & G6ASJ.net? Well it's my Amateur Radio callsign and unique to me and I can be sure there is/was no other web site with that domain name. Plus it was easy enough to obtain the domain name g6asj.net also. Which I have recently obtained and I am currently getting some of the pages together for the g6asj.net site. both sites should be finished sometime soon and hopefully before the end of December 2008. New year - New sites...

A little bit about my family and where we live.
We live in Portsmouth City Centre, in the Central South Coast area of the UK. That's with my Wife Caroline, and daughter Jessica who's now 15 years old and affectionately known as Squirt. As well as our grand daughter Clara who's now 4 years old at Feb 09. Clara's mother is my eldest daughter Michelle. But Clara lives here with us under a "Special Guardianship Order" granted by Portsmouth Family Court in Sept 2006.

A page devoted to our pets is also under construction featuring our fur & feathered friends in other pages of this site eventually.

A bit about some of the history of the place where we live:
Portsmouth has been a Naval port for many years, it has natural harbours on it's Eastern and Western sides which have been used since Saxon and Roman times. Portsmouth is in fact an Island, known as Portsea Island... There is a creek running East to West between the tops of the 2 harbours. The first Dockyard was originally built in the time of Henry VIII. The City was given a Royal Charter by Charles I. Portsmouth is also known as "the Home of the Royal Navy". Nelsons Flagship H.M.S. Victory, which was actually built in Chatham Dockyard in 1759 has been in dry dock here since Jan 1922, and was opened to the public in 1928. The City has plenty of other History also, some of which will be featured in other pages of this site soon.

I was born in Paulsgrove under the slopes of Portsdown Hill. It's well worth having a look at the "Tunnel" link below which will take you to an external site which opened my eyes, and I lived under the slopes of the hill mentioned for some 20 something years. I found the site by accident and learned more about the hill I used to play on than I did when I lived at the bottom of it's slopes for 25 years. If you've lived near the slopes of Portsdown Hill in the past or you know the area you must take a look at Bob Hunts pages.

I am now 53 years old in July 09, I was born in July 1956, and I am a very musical person, have played guitar on and off since I was about 16 years old. I have recently got back into playing again, and bought another guitar. I now  have a small collection of guitars which takes up valuable space here at home. Some of my other interests are listed in other pages of this site. Use the links below to go to the pages mentioned, and use the "back to home page" link on each page which will  return you to this page. Where the page has a "still under construction" note you may find some information, but the page(s) will be updated and completed sometime soon.

Copyright notices and small print bit:
I am aware that someone in a very professional role within Hampshire County Council at some point recently wanted to use some content from these sites & pages and to maybe use this content in a publication without my permission. If I find or hear of any content copied without my authorisation I shall make sure the person(s) loose their job(s). It is because of this I have had to remove Clara's page from this site until I am assured by the County Council department that they do not want to use and publish pictures and text from this site without my permission. As I am not likely to get such a communication from them these pages will not be returned to this site for the foreseeable future.

Both these sites were written and published by Mick Bradley and are subject to copyright © Mick Bradley (G6ASJ) 2009. No copying or transferring of any data or text contained in these pages to other means is permitted without the publishers consent. I have refused the H.C.C. department permission on more than one occasion and will willingly do so again. They wont help me so I wont help them. Simple as that.

I really hate Social Services, they lie through their Teeth.

I also have recently removed pictures of Clara off of this site as some are being published on the "Facebook" web site and in other publications without my permission. This is being looked into and my solicitor is aware of this matter.

There used to be an advert here for my web hosting services and my web packages, but I have decided to remove this as I am not happy to provide such services for a while.
