From humble Yorkshire lad to honorary Warwickshire man, I've been in the making since 1971 and still haven't made it yet.
Born in Bradford in 1971 and raised in the village of Oxenhope in Brontë country, I attended Coventry University between 1990 and 1994, where I graduated with a B.A. Hons (First Class) degree in Modern Languages (German and French as core languages and Russian ab initio). The third year of my course was spent between Potsdam, Germany and Grenoble, France.
I met Emma Paddison in 1993, we married in 1996 and now have two girls, Murron (born 1998) and Philippa (born 2001), and one boy, Tristan (born in 2008).
I live in Nuneaton, Warwickshire and am webmaster for a CAD/CAM software company. So much for the Modern Languages degree!
I have played the drums since 1981 and have been a member of Coventry originals band BAiT since 1996. I played drums with Coventry-based rock covers band, Ministry Of Beaver for four years between 2008 and 2012. I now perform in an acoustic line-up of BAiT, playing mandolin and cajon.
