Bio
Merlin Giles
I am not Ed's brother. Ed is an obscenely talented individual and highfalutin Stoke Newingtonite obsessed with all things creative that go bleep and squeak if left unattended. I have had the pleasure of knowing Ed for the best part of 30+ years (crikey, how old are you?) in which time he has been a constant headache but I would not cash in those memories for anything else nor have wanted anyone else as a brother...did I say brother? Ok, Ed is my brother but as biasness goes I am writing this as a complete stranger. I don't know Ed, never met him. Please do not let this recommendation detract from the fact that Ed is one of the most horribly talented individuals I know and if it wasn't for the fact I left 5000 vinyl records in his house when I moved to Asia, he might have been able to leave his room and conquer the world. Sorry mate.

Ed provided me an excellent web design service. Not only did he have my site up and running in a pinch, but he has been incredibly accommodating to my further requirements. His service has represented stunning value and I have found him very personable and easy to work with at all times. I do not hesitate to recommend his work.
