Nic Oatridge's Family Home Page

Not sure what brought you to this page, but from the sidebar you can select any one of a number of topics which reflect my interests and experiences.

The ski section in particular is very much a work in progress, and I welcome any tips and suggestions connected with skiing in Switzerland. There is also a link here to a pamphlet written by my mother on her home village of Burghead in Scotland, and you can contact her to get a fully illustrated, saddle-stitched paper copy. You will also find around the site many pictures I've taken - if you want to reproduce any please ask me first, normally all I require is that you acknowledge my rights as the photographer. You might also have hit my site to find out more about cancer and my own experiences, so I hope the information and links I provide are useful to you. Let me know!

There has been an Oatridge web site around since 1994. Initially it was hosted by the BBC Networking Club, but they handed over their service provision to their own ISP, Pipex. Pipex was the first UK company to start offering Internet connectivity to the public and established a strong, now faded, reputation. Since 2010 we have been hosted by the excellent Evohosting.

If you are interested in the family history of the Oatridge surname please visit Brian Otridge's web site. Being a relatively rare family name Brian has been able to trace the relationships of virtually everyone with this surname or one of it's variations. The surname originated in Wiltshire, England, and over the generations it slowly spread to nearby counties. Now the Oatridge diaspora is found in countries all over the world, of which England, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia, Scotland, Germany, USA and Switzerland I too have lived in.

If you want to get in touch, the best way is to search for Oatridge family members by name on facebook. You can also contact me via my flickr account. There is also a "Contact Us" link on the sidebar which you can use to send me a message.
