Personal Views & Information

Realising that mortality is a fact, I decided that to do the trips whilst young enough to enjoy it to its fullest is a bright thing to do.

Personal Interests

*   Model Aircraft – I am reclaiming my boyhood hobby after having had it stolen by my business. This will be somewhat limited whilst traveling but I will be able to snatch the occasional flight.

*   Technology – Interested in anything new that might improve life for me, mine or my friends.

*   Motor Sports – An extension of family interests in motorsports going back to my childhood and being furthered by previous business interests when sponsoring top fuel teams in drag racing.

*   Business – Can’t help but to always keeping an eye open for a good deal.

*   Share Markets – This is always interesting whether looking for a bargain or watching for something that looks dodgy.
