Born in SE London, I am an IT Consultant who now lives in Tooting with my lovely wife Cara. We got married in August 2008 after being together for 8 years. We are both keen DIY'ers and when money permits, have been remodelling the ground floor of our house.

My main interests are Chelsea FC, gadgets and technology, cars and racing and learning new skills. We like to try and take sailing and skiing holidays if we can and would normally always go for an activity type holiday rather than baking ourselves on a beach.

Not that we are anti-beach, we stayed on some amazing ones during 2001 while travelling the world for 11 1/2 months. We visited Nepal, Thailand, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, America and Canada and it was one of the best experiences of my life. We actually lived and working in Sydney, Australia for 6 months of it too so got to spend Summer at many of Sydney's great beaches and parks.
