Playing and Watching football (Shake and Bake FC, Middlesex Terriers are my teams and I follow the Mighty Yids from N17)
Growing my hair (which I seem to be good at, it's been 3 years so far...)
Saving money in the bank (getting rich is not proving so easy. I'll learn how to do it one day...)
Listening and Dancing to music (the latter has been described as an 'energetic' style and like a 'mexican bean'. At least I have rhythm and I'm co-ordinated...)
Spending time in the company of the opposite sex (because in all honesty, who doesn't?)
Mountaineering and Rock Climbing (get the life insurance at the ready. I've had some pretty nasty injuries in my short career of climbing up stuff...)
Sidney Poitier, Nelson Mandela and Cassius Clay (all for the same reason. They have all lived bloody brilliant lives and I need to know the secret)
Wade Robson (to teach me how to dance better)
Oscar Wilde (to get in touch with the artistic side of my character)
Bill Bryson (to meet up for a beer and find out what makes him tick)
Roald Dahl (to thank him for making my childhood so bloody brilliant)
Eva Mendes (because quite frankly, she's fit)
I've been accused of owning a confused i-pod. Which I guess is a fair comment considering it covers these selected bands and artists:
213, 2Pac, 50 Cent, A Tribe Called Quest, Akon, The Arctic Monkeys, Armand Van Helden, Beanie Sigel, Beverley Knight, Black Eyed Peas, Bob Marley, Busta Rhymes, Cam'ron
, The Cardigans, Cassidy, Cassie, Chingy, Chris Brown, Ciara, The Clash, Coldcut, Common, Corinne Bailey Rae, D'Angelo, Daft Punk, Damian Marley, David Banner, Diddy, Dilated Peoples, Dizzee Rascal, DJ Danger Mouse, Eminem, EPMD, Feeder, Freq Nasty, The Game, Gnarls Barkley, Gorillaz, Gym Class Heros, Hard Fi, Jadakiss, The Jam, Jamie T, Jay-Z, Jill Scott, Jimmy Hendrix, Joe, Joe Budden, Juelz Santana, Kano, Kanye West, Keane, Kelis, The Killers, The Kooks, Lady Sovereign, Lenny Kravitz, Lil'Kim, LL Cool J, Lloyd Banks, Loon, Ludacris, Lupe Fiasco, The Manic Street Preachers, Missy Elliott, The Mitchell Brothers, Mobb Deep, Mr. Scruff, Mylo, N.E.R.D., Nas, Naughty By Nature, Ne-Yo, Nelly, New Order, N.W.A., Oasis, Ocean Colour Scene, Pharrell, Plan B, The Prodigy, Razorlight, Rhianna, Rodney P, Roll Deep, Roni Size, Roots Manuva, The Roots, Sean Paul, Snoop Dogg, The Streets, The Sugar Hill Gang, Sway, T.I. & Wiley
It's no wonder my bloody i-pod melted!
Discovered this little gem over Xmas. DJ Sona hails from South of the river and is a little bit tasty if you're into your breakbeat originals and remixes and the like...

Again another area where I could be accused of being a little confused. My all time favourite is the original Italian Job. Films on the Snatch, Lock Stock, Layer Cake genre tend to do the tend to keep me entertained. Then films as diverse as Kidulthood, The Life of Brian and Coming to America for example will also help me escape from the harsh realities of life...
Animation helps. Especially if you're a green legend with big ears. Or a baked little man made of ginger...

TV watching doesn't feature highly on my life schedule, although when it is squeezed in I'll watch Match of the Day, Lost, Phoenix Nights (when it was on back in the day), Deal or No Deal, Dream Team on Sky One (bloody classic), ER, Shameless and Skins I found was a wee bit addictive.
But if we're talking classic television at it's best, then look no further than this clip. It's what Saturday mornings are all about (apologies if you have no idea what is about to happen here...)
Adverts will also keep me entertained. Whoever came up with the below is a genius...
Dont tend to read much, although when I do a Bill Bryson book is never far away (Notes From A Small Island is a particualar favourite)
My mother is number one (for pretty much being a living inspiration to me. If it wasn't for her, I doubt I'd be where I am today)
My other collective group of heroes are summarised in these videos. All those who are about to appear (with some notable exceptions. I'll let you decide) have provided me with my football education and for that reason I salute them all...
