Hi guys. A little bit about me- born 29-02-84- a leap Year baby, so i'm only actually 5 and a half years old!!. Born in Dewsbury, Leeds! Yes I know- England, but I'm a welsh man through and through. Lived in Leeds for a few years, then Portsmouth for a few more and then came to reside in the county of Bridgend in 1989. Went to Litchard Junior School then moved onto Brynteg. Loved Everyminute of Brynteg- it was epic. Played rugby while I was there, brilliant, loved being a jock! But I always kept it real with everyone. Australia 2001 was a great tour and an awsome experiance. After the whole school thing, went onto the whole uni thing. Went to Bristol UWE in 2002 to study "BSC (Hons) in Architectural Technology and Design". Another great experiance, meeting all sorts of people, from all over the world. Got a 2:2 in the old degree after 3 years of sweat and tears- I was well happy. Didn't fancy becoming a CAD monkey so thought what else could I do? Teaching seemed to be a good route- influence young people and do some coaching of rugby in the mean time. As soon as I'd done the first degree, started my PGCE in Secondary Design and Technology in Sept 2005, once again at Bristol UWE. Another intresting year, meeting new people and learning to teach. Finished that in June 2006. Managed to secure job at John Cabot CTC in Bristol, its a really good school and I cant wait to get started at the end of August. And thats my life up to now.A few other bits I better mention- Still playing rugby. Playing for Bridgend Athletic at the moment. Its all good and we're looking forward to the season in Division One. Whilst at uni I had a couple of seasons at Dings Crusaders-Awsome club and they made me feel welcome every moment I was there. Met some great people and I'd love to go back there and play sometime soon. Moved to cardiff after my PGCE year and have been here since the begining of July. Living here with my mate from uni, Brent, and his Girlfriend, Buddug. The other person living here is my other half Zoe. Been with for 4 and a bit years (nearly 5!) now. We're all good, but everyone probably already knows this.And that is definetly it! Theres no more to say....
