Massachusetts Brummie

About Me

Was once from Birmingham and London, but am now living in Massachusetts, near Boston. Married to Jen, three kids, two dogs, several cats and a ferret. Spend my time publicizing (or publicising) events for sporting organisations such as the NFL and sports writing. Beats working for sure. Preston Consulting company website: www.mprestonsports.com Used to be in Brum bands called Doodlebug (a pre-cursor of Dissident Prophet and Thought Gang) and before that Major Hero. Good to see Tom doing so well with Carina Round and his writing/producing. Get home quite often and might come back tso stay some day.

My Interests

Sports of course. It's work and it's play. My pets. The two dogs are like two more kids and I guess they are actually my co-workers. Reading. Travel. New-found passion for the health club. Coaching soccer - the Norwood Revolution U11s. Coffee at Perks in Norwood

I'd like to meet:

Anyone from those old band days, especially Tim and Tony, who have vanished. I found Yog in Great Yarmouth. Also Michael Valentine West, Mick Welby and Pete McDonnell.

Music:

Right now on my i-pod... Fratellis, Killers, SLF, Dexys, Snow Patrol, Chili Peppers.

Movies:

Got the 'I'm Alan Partridge' DVD for Christmas and if you watch all the eposides it's as long as a movie.

Television:

43" flat screen bought for the World Cup!

Books:

Anthony Kiedes was an eye-opener, and I read too many sports books.
