===== About Me =====

{{ :davidfamily.jpg|}}I'm David Barton, living in Bristol, UK. I'm married to Johanna and have two daughters, Phoebe and Niamh. 

During the day I'm a lecturer in the Department of Engineering Mathematics at the University of Bristol (see [[Research]] for details of my work). 

What little spare time I have (after spending time with wife and/or children) seems to get spent on doing DIY on our home in Bristol. I love the great outdoors, I can think of few things better than just relaxing and taking in the scenery. I'd really love to take a tent, a camera and a few books and go wander around some of the Scottish highlands. Perhaps when the children leave home (it could be some time...).
