I am from another planet sent here to try an understand the human race. The males of your species are simple enough but the females I have still to figure out? While here I have done various jobs to keep my cover including driving a 7.5 tonner for 3 1/2 years, I have also weilded spanners for a wage and worked as a freelance Grips in the film & TV industry mounting cameras on things for programs such as Top Gear and and Only Fools and Horses. On your plannet I have also done some engineering and even worked as a welder fabricator for a few years. At the moment I am working in the motor industry testing ECU's and supplying garages with technical products and informaton as well as service products and garage equipment. :lol:

Still I know very little about the female of your kind even though I have been what you call "MARRIED" for many years!! :lol:

By the way best job ever was pilot of a Valurian deep space core mining ship running the Kalrian blockades on the outer edge of the Silisan quadrant.

(a sort of truck driver)
