HOBBIES/INTERESTS:
I am a great ski-ing enthusiast and last year toured the Austrian
Ski resorts with my brother, ski-ing in a different town each day
for a week.
I am also a half decent footballer and a great fan of NBA
basketball which I played when I was younger and won tournaments
with my school.
I also try to play Golf and I am a member of my local Health club
in Newton Mearns (Parklands) in which I work-out in the gym and
keep myself fit.
I also like to use my own computer to try and further
my skills and find out new ideas in this new technological age.
I have also recently linked up to the Internet with my own E-mail
address, striving to gain more knowledge from this new medium.
