The year is 1981 - Superman 2 is released, the United Kingdom win the Eurovision song contest, and most importantly, I was born. Now 29 years have passed, and according to the people who give out railcards - I am no longer a 'young person'. I am still coming to terms with this! So what have I learnt about myself during this time? Well, I'm a big fan of music, but not such a huge fan of wires that tangle themselves up, and are impossible to untangle. I love pasta with pesto, but not so keen on anything mushroom related. I like snowboarding and surfing, and dislike falling off snowboards and surfboards - actually, that is not true, it is all part of the fun. I can make amazing hand-made birthday cards, complete with pop-up functionality, but cant seem to write a good profile about myself to save my life.

I am adventurous, spontaneous, and awesome

Mainly listening to Karl Pilkington and laughing. Other than that, I am a rock star masquerading as someone working behind a computer. I make websites. I have no idea how I ended up doing this, but I enjoy it. In between this, it's all about exploring the world a bit...recent highlights include seeing the northern lights in Iceland, swimming with Whale sharks in Australia and celebrating New Year in Thailand with a 4 day water-fight. Next stop: snowboarding/Godzilla hunting in Japan.

'Really good' is a bit strong, but I enjoy snowboarding, surfing, art, music, guitar, drums, photography, football, squash...
