About

Hi, I’m Peter Scargill. This is our new website and it is the place to get information. Firstly a quick summary: I’m 55, I live generally in the UK with my wife Maureen and 4 cats. We live in Northumberland and I spend much of my time travelling around the country mostly including the delights of Blackpool and London.

I run an IT consultancy specialising in the technology needs of small businesses – including strangely enough rapid websites – but not quick and dirty websites – anyone can do that – I provide a personal service including training and backup with a vast amount of experience at doing this. I am also the National IT Director for the Federation of Small Businesses. Maureen teaches in Hexham Middle School.

We have 2 (adult) offspring and 5 grand-children. We both enjoy cinema and travel and have a small place in Spain – in Andalucía as well as our home in Wark – and we’re currently putting together a new holiday rental in Bellingham – we plan to spend the summer holidays in Spain and I keep a separate Spanish blog on that. Still trying to get to grips with the language. We both enjoy travel, cinema and visiting friends. Maureen is into reading copious amounts of books, I’m currently into understanding evolution and the multiverse– working through Richard Dawkin’s and Dr. Michu Kaku books at the minute.
