Simon Cox’s website

Hi - this is my personal website. I bring you a smattering of articles to read, images to soak in while you wander about the web and a few thoughts to ponder on while you drink your tea in the short articles section.

You can find out what I have been up to, and listening to, on my Now page as well as where I have been seen or heard on the web. I also tend to use this as a bit of a testing ground for experiments in web design, development, content management ideas and SEO testing as well as throwing out a few ideas.

Narrow Gauge Railway modelling takes up a bit of my spare time and deserves a lot more. Please do have a look at what I have created and I hope it inspires others.

There is also my Tag Soup podcast which was fun to do but really did take up too much of my time to create just 20 min episodes.

Enjoy!
