Who the Hell Is Piit?
Well, it’s me, as you might have guessed :-) Some boring facts for starters: my name is Petr Sedlacek, I’m 28 years old and I come from the south of the Czech Republic. I was living in Prague for 8 years when I was trying to study at the Czech Technical University (oh, where are those wild beautiful student times :-) Almost two years ago I’ve moved to England with my girlfriend (who? “partner”, I was told :), so we’re now living in a small village of Stourport-on-Severn in Worcestershire, about 30 km south-west from Birmingham.
I’m currently working as an IT Manager (huh, what a fancy job title, isn’t it? :-) in Kidderminster Footwear - one of the UK’s leading wholesale footwear suppliers (in the other words, one of the companies that brings the largest amount of Chinese crap shoes to the UK ;). I’m taking care of 4 servers (1x Windows 2003 Server, 3x Linux) and about 40 Windows XP workstations.
I’ve got a lot of different interests and hobbies - I’m trying to do everything, but at the same time can’t do anything properly. Among others - sports (mountain biking, squash, badminton, rock climbing), amateur radio (OK1THA, M0WTF), programming (PHP, Perl), model flying, classic photography, music (playing the guitar), films etc. Therefore, every day is about 5 hours too short for me… At the age of 28 I’m sometimes looking forward to retirement! :-)
And this is the most wonderful girl I’ve ever met - Monika Vlckova a.k.a. my lovely Minatko. I met her in Prague three years ago (the time’s just flying!) - and I hold on to her since then, ’cause you just don’t run upon such girls on the street every day, do you? (Actually, I think that happens rarely more than once a lifetime… :) She’s 25, has a bachelor degree in special pedagogy and is working as a care assistant in Astley Hall Care Home at the moment.
