My 'claim to fame' / something no-one knows about me (until now):

I once attempted to start a conversation with Kate Middleton (Princess of Wales) in a supermarket on Anglesey, although I hadn’t realised it was her until my wife confirmed it. On a professional level, a Judge once insisted that I bring several dead/frozen parrots to Court – but that’s a story for another time!

Most likely to say:

"Nothing silly now!"

I'm a big supporter of:

Manchester United. I am a keen fell runner, I play the guitar and enjoy reading and walking (with the dog).
