At age seventeen, the careers master advised him, “Your choices are computing or electronics.” He chose civil engineering, obtaining sponsorship from George Wimpey Ltd., then the world’s largest civil engineering company, which enrolled him in a five-year sandwich degree at the City University, London.
By the time he was twenty-one, he’d been nearly blown up on site and had experienced flying off the side of a mountain in a wingless Land Rover. “Nul points” for the spectacular thirty-foot dive with a one-and-a-half sideways roll. Civil engineering was proving too dangerous a career. Via the civil service, he moved into IT consultancy and management in the eighties. In 2008, he returned to City University where he was appointed honorary visiting professor in ICT for its MSc in construction management.
