About Jem Turner

Ultimately better than you.

Hi there. My name is Jem, and I’m a PHP ninja, SEO warrior and all round coding rockstar. If you believe that, you’ll believe anything.

I’m a 20-something working mum to Isabel; partner to Karl; geek; web developer; and blogger, based in Shropshire in the UK. This is my blog, & I use it for communicating wit and wisdom on my three favourite subjects: parenting, pets, and PHP. When I’m not bashing away at a keyboard, I’d like to read my Pratchett novels, play games on my various Nintendo consoles or take bad pictures of my pets, but in reality I rarely have the time.

I have a strong sense of humour, a passion for all things geeky and a serious interwebs addiction. I am actively involved in a boycott of all Nestlé products.

You can find me all over the web:

About ‘jemjabella’

Jemjabella.co.uk — based so cleverly on my Internet nickname “jemjabella” — is my blog. It has seen many faces over the years, from the “angsty” homepage of a frustrated teen to the network of a young professional. Despite having far too much to do since the birth of my little girl, I find my life a little empty without somewhere to rant about the world and its idiots occupants, and have the archives to show for it!

Geeking out
The site is a hodge-podge of two retired home-grown blog systems and content imported from various WordPress/Habari installs from over the years. I buy my hosting through Clook and domains are purchased through Namecheap.com, both of which I recommend for their value and service.

My thanks go to the following for helping me build my website:
