I'm 23, married, 3 month old son, employed in New Zealand's social
welfare department, in a totally non IT role, learning Python purely
out of personal interest and a desire to stop working for New
Zealand's social welfare department someday.

I too climb mountains, having previously been based in a village of 50
people deep in the Southern Alps. I can't ski.
