Likes
Typical bloke, anything sporty and a pint down at the local.

Dislikes
I dislike rude people and being late for anything.

Brings to the team
As we spend a third of our lives at work, I always try to be positive and enjoy the different projects and interesting work that we receive at Applelec.

Desert island disc
So many to choose from but if I had to pick one, it would be Crazy - Gnarls Barkley.

Lifetime ambition
To be the chairman of Bradford City Football Club.

Guilty pleasure
Chocolate.

Unusual fact
While on holiday in Scotland in 1995 I was fortunate enough to be chosen as an extra on the film Braveheart starring Mel Gibson. Dressed as a marauding clan member and getting paid for it was an experience I will never forget.

Favourite Applelec experience
Seeing the end results of the vast array of projects we take on. Seeing customer photos of the signs we've produced fitted and in their full glory is always a buzz.
