Following a trail that’s going around the blogosphere, I have been tagged by the delightful Priyanka Kanse. The idea is to get to know each other better by revealing 8 random things about yourself so here I go:

1. I was born and raised in a small town called Westhoughton in Lancashire where no one really escapes - people are still looking for me!

2. I travelled to Africa alone for 3 months at the age of 17, and almost died atop of Mt Kilimanjaro

3. I like to mix sambuka with coke and baccardi with cranberry juice < great drinks

4. I once went out clubbing in Leeds for 40 days straight spending all of my student loan allowance

5. I spent 3/4 of my life playing computer games when I was a kid but havent allowed myself near them since the age of 16

6. I love the countryside and coast

7. I secretly want to be a professional photographer

8. I am engaged to a beautiful woman called Monique

Now I’ll pass this onto another 8 bloggers, so over to you guys…
