About

My Name is Liam Byrnes, I am a logistics co-ordinator for mostly offshore seismic surveys (though I also do a lot of tech stuff in the office) in Aberdeen, I live in Scotland, more precisely North East Scotland in a small town called Fraserburgh roughly 45 miles north of Aberdeen, though I havent always lived there.

 

I was born and raised in Cornwall, and I Love Cornwall, Lots of good memories, Loads of Great Friends, and pretty much ALL of my family live there.

….And why did I leave, to go to University,  and Im still working on my Masters degree Divinity (practical theology), I should graduate soon.

 I also work for a Marine provision company that supplies services to the Offshore Oil and Gas Industry. I work mostly with the exploration side of the industry.
