I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a dad, so spend most of my time away from my desk hanging out with my wife, and daughter I suppose.
I'm always listening to music, and love "all kinds obscure tat" (as my wife describes it).
I like reading.
Watching films.

Finally got myself a new bike (thank you my lovely wife). The upshot of this is that I'm actually turning the pedals again. Grand. Winter's just around the corner though.
So bring on the mud.Low key class from Arizona here (video shot by The Young Francis):

time (at the bar)

Solution to my life's main problem: I'm going to invent a machine that slows down time. I simply don't have the hours in the day to even approximate a work / life balance at the moment. This machine ...
