Chris Pickles Web Site

This website is divided into four areas:

The Pickles Family - The family name "Pickles" goes back to medieval times, and comes from a small corner of Yorkshire in England. If your name is Pickles - wherever you may be today - your family was from that corner of Yorkshire at some point in the past.

Burroughs office computers - In the early 1970s, Burroughs was the second-largest computer company in the world, behind IBM. Its small office computers - pre-PC - were called the Series L/TC, B700 series, B80 and B800 series, and B90 and B900 series. Today that generation of computers seems to be almost lost. This section is for those who were involved with them.

Moseley Hall Grammar School - I was a pupil at MHGS from 1963 to 1970. This section is for those who attended it, whether as pupils or as staff.

Pickles' Recipes - these are ones that we all love.

Website Profile

I have worked in the Information Technology sector since 1974, and since 1986 that has been in in the Financial Services industry.

The Internet wouldn't have become what it has today unless people were prepared to share information and knowledge. I've created this website in order to share some of the things that I have learned over the years, and memories that others may want to remember and share.
