Glen Barton is currently working as an acting manager for the technical support team at Freestart PLC in Wigan.
Outside of the typical day job I enjoy gaming, drinking (lots!) and general computing, specifically with an emphasis on web & graphic design. I’m an avid fan of the Wii, playing Rayman Raving Rabbids, Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros Brawl & Fire Emblem, and pretty much love all it has to offer. Although I do also play a number of games via PC, such as Unreal Tournament, Supreme Commander and Command & Conquer (I *may* add online handles for these soon!).
I’m not a typical 22 year old “lager lout”, preferring the taste of traditional ales more. Pints of “Pump Fiction” and “Chocolate Drop” are commonplace among IPA although I can still knock back a large volume (particularly when in mini-kegs)!
In my spare time, mostly as a hobby I assist with various web designs and coding XHTML complaint sites. My aim is to expand this from a hobby to a full time occupation in the near future. A few examples of sites I’ve done:

Alongside software application I also enjoy dismantling a PC (often for little reason) and upgrading / building desktop computers, very often being called to repair a computer that is not performing as it should.
Finally, I’m currently engaged to my lovely fiancee Janine. We’re planning on a wedding cruise in summer 2010 although that’s about it for now, we’ve been engaged for over 2 years but agreed that a long engagement was the ideal way forward.
