I've just been tagged by Thayer Driver to share 8 random things about myself. Hmmm, I better choose wisely...
1. I've played guitar since I was 12, initially electric lead guitar, then acoustic for the last 7 years or so. I sing, and write my own songs, and have performed in bands and solo, but I do it for myself more than anything else.
2. I've been training in Baguazhang, a Chinese internal martial art, for almost 9 years. I get up early to train, usually for about an hour a day.
3. I was a PC user for years, but switched to Mac a year and a half ago and haven't looked back.
4. I'm half Spanish, but although I've stayed in Spain with family many times my grasp of the language is very basic.
5. I had originally planned to be a barrister, and have a law degree from Durham University, before I realised I was far more interested in business, running my own companies, and generally doing my own thing.
6. I'm one of those people who are interested in everything, and have to work really hard to limit what I do. Things I've been interested in (some pretty seriously) include card magic, kayaking, surfing, break dancing and hiking, to name just a few, and I'm a prolific reader.
7. I was in Scouts when I was a teenager, got all the way to the Queen Scout Award, which is a step up from Gold Duke of Edinburgh.
8. I have family who live in Kenya, I've been out there many times. Luckily they were out of the country when the troubles hit. The election problems were really saddening, Kenya had so much promise - I just hope it manages to fix itself and get back on track.
Well, that's my eight - what are yours?
I tag Kelly Rusk, Scott Gavin, Dan Light, and Jeremy Gould.
