Fame

At 58, I’ve never enjoyed conventional fame.

I have however helped to create two world class companies, won two Queens Awards for Industry, bred a horse that won on Arc day in Paris, etc. etc.

Now, one of the biggest kicks I get is travelling and seeing projects, like the Channel Tunnel, the Hong Kong Sewers, the Jubilee Line, North Sea Oil, power stations etc. etc., that were built using the software I wrote in 1975.

Those that decry wanting fame are just jealous.
