Fortunately I evolved.  Roll on many years and I was fault finding and repairing stuff, but yearned too, to create things.  That ambition had to wait for a few more decades … almost to retirement

Long story short, I discovered an Arduino in a Maplin store, took it home, blinked a few LEDs and LOVED IT !

Now at age 70 I’m still learning, but I’m also happy to share my knowledge and experience.
