With the increase in web based businesses, it's
sometimes difficult to see if there are any humans behind the scenes.
Dealing with machines may be efficient but sometimes we like to
know there is someone you can talk to and we're not just buying
from a faceless computer. We DO exist and this is just a little
about myself, my family and how we got started.
My name is Neil and I have an interest in
many alternative medical practices & especially when my partner
Mandy was diagnosed with possible MS. This debilitating condition
has no known cure and I started investigating other remedies. After
two years of tests, including MRI scans, we were eventually told that
it wasn't MS but a form of Migraine! |
| I'm originally from Clevedon,
near Bristol and attended the Control Data Institute and became a
Computer Engineer, working for ICL then IBM in Bristol for many happy
years as an IBM Server & OS/2 Specialist before starting up as
a freelance consultant in 1997. |
| Around this time, Mandy, took the
kids to visit her relatives in Warminster and during a visit to "Farmer
Giles Farmstead" near Salisbury, came home with a day old lamb
"Billy"! He was the runt of the litter was dying of starvation
because the farm couldn't cope with the amount of new lambs. After
picking myself off the floor, I started to see the funny side &
helped to feed and look after him. At the time, we were living in
a small town house in the centre of Bristol ! Very soon we became
very good friends. |

He lived in the house for several weeks and shared the dogs basket.
As sheep are difficult to house train, we used nappies, which was
quite a sight. He grew very quickly and I converted an old "Out
House" into a shed for him and he lived in garden for over
a year.
|
| He was particularly fond of "Rare
Breed" dog food & broke into the pantry several times until
I built a gate to keep him out ! We did give him treats now and then
instead ! |
 |
 |
Thwarted by the gate ! |
|
In late 1997, I left IBM to became a freelance IT Consultant &
worked for many companies such as Royal & Sun Alliance, Axa,
Orange, Zurich, BAT & Comptacenter.
We then moved from Bristol because my daughter had been selected
to attend the 2nd worst secondary school in the UK. We eventually
found a property within the catchment area of Gillingham school
in Dorset which had an excellent reputation, so we moved to "The
Old Rectory Paddock", Chicklade in 1998, which had a large
garden where we kept "Billy", plus several chickens and
ducks.

In July 2000, Billy caught a skin infection from another sheep,
rescued from a neighbouring field. A friend suggested we used Colloidal
Silver for the infection & he knew someone who made it himself.
I didn't know anything about it apart from having to travel 35 miles
to get it.
He looked me up and down and because I was in a suit, was quite
happy to charge me £10 for 100 ml. Not knowing any different,
I paid the man and took it home. We applied the Colloidal Silver
topically and it cleared the infection. Mandy started using it for
minor ailments which seemed to cure much faster than usual. This
was the point where I took notice & became fascinated.
|
|
My background is in electronics, so it was easy
for me to design & build a basic generator. Word soon spread
and I was making Colloidal Silver for family, friends and then friends
of friends. I was spending all day working and then most evenings
just keeping up with demand. During a break from my IT work, I designed
a much larger scalable commercial generator & started to write
this site.
This page hasn't really anything to do with Colloidal
Silver but I hope it gives you an insight into who we are, How we
got started & more importantly, I hope it shows we are ordinary
people and care about people and animals alike.

| What now? |
|
I have been running this website full time for many years and its
been quite a few years since I left IBM and the fast paced life
of IT.
I now prefer to take things easy and I ride my Harley when I can,
go out & do local deliveries and play in my band "The Darkside
of Pink Floyd". We're actually very good and do have a look
at our website
which I wrote myself! Im the good looking guy on the Keyboards!
