| QUESTION AND ANSWER
|
| Tell us - what are the best things in life?
A summer Sunday drive into the Peak District, a roast beef
Sunday dinner! And my dog Malcom.

| What did you dream about last night?
My uncle was playing in goal for Fulham (!) and their
dressing room was adjacent to ours. It seems that we were
playing a concert somewhere nearby. Bizarre.
|
| What's your favourite smell?
KMS Hair Gel. Interior smell of old cars.

| When was the last time someone shouted at you?
My girlfriend. (It's a regular occurrence).

San Francisco - spectacular bridge, excellent Harbour
