A lot of people* have asked me what the “B” in “Jason B Standing” stands for. Another way to phrase it is “What’s your middle name?”, however I suppose in this case because I’ve proffered the “B” to them in the introduction it feels a lot less nosey to ask. …

I keep forgetting to write about this, but I think you’ll agree – it stands shoulder-to-shoulder with any of the other quality content herein. During my 10-or-so years’ living in London one of the many & varied places I called “home” was a ludicrously expensive flat in the Russell Square …

Who the hell is Jason B. Standing?

Since throwing caution to the wind and moving from Adelaide to London in 2004, Jason has totally embraced his passions of travelling, going to live music & comedy gigs, appreciating ludicrously tasty whisky, and t-shirts. Mmmmm… t-shirts…

Around 2014ish he packed up and went West, throwing down new roots in the throbbing city of Bristol, where he now lives with his wonderful wife, and the finest labrador in history: Larry B Standing.

Professionally he’s in the software development business, and occupies his spare time doing pretty much anything that comes up in conversation & looks interesting. He is really impressed by people who do science (properly).
