No - Pick three words to describe your personality. Funny, friendly, helpful - Do you have any pets? Yes, cats - Microsoft or Apple? Apple - Which sport(s) (if any) do you like/play? Watching Snooker if I'm feeling tired - sends me right off! - Do you get angry easily? No, I'm quite patient - most of the time... - Do you have any tattoos or piercings? If so, where? Tattoos, both upper arms, centre of shoulder blades - List your five favourite musicians/bands. P!NK, Rag N Bone Man, The Common Linnets, Sia, David Bowie - What would you say your favourite music genre is? I don't have a favourite, I like it all - What is your favourite flag? The Union Flag of course! - Ever gone camping? Yes, many times - Ever been in love? Yes, many times - Ever used fake tan? No - Which countries have you visited? Denmark, France (Paris, many times), Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Germany (lived there for over 3 years), Cyprus (lived there for a year), Ascension Island (lived there for 18 months), Afghanistan (6 months), Oman. - Favourite city? Paris - List your five favourite TV programmes. This is us, Silent Witness, Bake Off, Holby, Grand Designs - List your five favourite films. Genevieve, Battle of Britain, Twister (about the storms, not the game!!), Top Gun, Zulu - Are you wealthy? I do ok ta - Do you work? If so, as what? After leaving the RAF having served 22 years in 2014 due to Type 1 Diabetes (medical discharge) I set myself up as a local Handyman. My Father has Vascular Dementia in an advanced stage so I needed to be self employed in order to help my Mother look after him. - List the subjects you study/have studied. I did very well at Art but don't really do it now. I do create things in miniature though and have had a couple of my projects in 1:12 scale published in a magazine. - What do you like most about yourself? I'm very helpful - What do you like least about yourself? My intolerance of selfish people, especially when it comes to those who buy cars that don't have indicators fitted!! Other stuff about me: I laugh a lot, at many things. Sometimes I went for long periods not laughing, life hasn't been kind and losing a very good career at the age of 39 (thats when I got Type 1) was only one of these things. I'm gay but I have 2 children aged 22 and 21 and I'm also a Grandfather! I like classic cars and currently own a 1974 Triumph Spitfire 1500, I also drive a Porsche Boxster S oh, and my Vauxhall Combo work van! I'm green fingered and I grow my own potato's, onions, carrots, runner beans, cabbage and tomato's. [/QUOTE]
