I have a lot of funny stories at JOW but nothing PG rating.
6. Where would we find you on a weekend?
Spending days out with my wife and four children they all keep me busy.
7. If you had to be stuck in a lift with a star character, who would it be and why?
I would love to be stuck in a lift with George Lucas so I could talk Star Wars with him.
