    The list is endless.... DJing around the country / world (sometimes), making new friends, living the life of Riley... bringing joy to folks through music.

    Why am I a functioning alcoholic / depressive? (A fun one to be around nevertheless):

    Oh, yes, the rest of the WORLD.
    How sad that whilst we have a pretty good existence, most of the world is being exploited.
    We have seen that come back to this country in the last 20 years or so even & we are one of the richest in the world.
    Hopefully the tide is turning.

    Jez overtaking Theresa in the polls basically is my answer.

    Started learning Bulgarian, bought a house in Bulgaria and discovered that the EU is really not a bad place to be at all.

    Fantastic. Went to school in Featherstone, St Wilfrid's. Those views remind of the cross country routes. Albeit we usually did that in weather like today's!

    Congrats fella! Best thing, and hardest thing, in the world being a parent. But proudest thing I have in my life is my little boy.

    I'm on holiday with him at moment and it's just magical seeing his face light up at all the new experiences. He's just coming up 2.

    Until I had him I thought certain things mattered. Then the day he came along I realised they didn't. Life is beautiful.

    I've started playing Walking Football. Started off six of us playing. Tonight we played 8 a side. Really enjoying it. Mums and daughters playing. loads of laughs.
    I've been asked to play in the National competition in Preston on Sunday. Not able to play, but nice to be asked.
