Hello, world! Welcome to n21alpha. This is your first post after moving your website over. On this site, you’ll find photos of cars, boats, and other things. You’ll also be able to read some of my short stories about two MI5 surveillance operatives working in London, who may sometimes operate outside the city.

Welcome to a world of limitless possibilities, where the journey is as exhilarating as the destination, and where every moment is an opportunity to make your mark on the canvas of existence. The only limit is the extent of your imagination.

That said, anyone in this field ends up with some pretty interesting—and sometimes hilarious—stories over the years. Let me share just a little taste of those experiences.
