Personal profile

At the centre of my world is my family, consisting of my Wife and our five wonderful little boys, the eldest of whom now has an age in double figures. I have been accused of being a 'glutton for punishment' for wanting five littluns running around, but I would not change it for the world. They run us both ragged but I do not want it any other way.

So aside from my very keen interest on the worldwide prices of Ribena and Sugar free ice pops what interests me? I like to read and since acquiring a smart phone with the legendary Kindle app installed I manage to read more and more. This can be attested to by the amount of times it wakes me up as it falls out of my hand! One of my current books is Storyteller by Donald Sturrock, the biography of Roald Dahl, whom has always been and icon to me ever since I first stepped into the world of his unique brand of magical fiction.

Other, more hands on interests include most things with an internal combustion engine, photography, and exploring new places. A favorite way to spend time is to drive somewhere I have never been and wander around with a camera.

Musically I have quite a varied taste but my favorite genre by a mile is rock. Please don't ask me to define exactly what I mean by 'rock'‘ but suffice to say if it involves guitars, drums and some lyrics which can be sung along to, then I am interested at the very least.

I hope reading this passage has been interesting,or at the very least has not caused your smart phone to fall out of your, now sleepy hands!

Thank you for taking the time and please do have a browse around the rest of this site.
