Hobbies and Interests

Spending time with the family and creation memories is number 1 for me. I'm a big fan of the speedway and enjoy a night out at the track with the kids, also I'm a very keen fisherman and love being on or anywhere near the water. Going to the gym and trying to keep actively fit. And finally, I'm a huge Vodafone Warriors supporter.
