and networking software, latterly with particular experience in
the Web. He started consulting for Nixdorf Computer and worked
for Siemens, Siemens Nixdorf and Digital Equipment Corporation's

Book Publishing
The main emphasis of our business has been web consultancy but in
May 2001 we launched our publishing imprint Pauntley Press with
our first title Veg: simple, stylish
and seasonal vegetarian cooking, written by Catherine Mason.
We will be publishing Catherine's next book Vegetable Heaven
in August.
Both the directors are published authors.
