Favourite holiday destination? Egypt It has something for all the family. Sand


and sea for the kids, romantic walks by the Nile, magnificent historical sites... Love it


Worst fashion disaster? Well, there's been so many of them it's hard to


choose the worst! It would probably be when I fell victim to the shell suit craze that swept the countiy in the very early 90s. Fortunately I saw the error of my ways fairiy quickly, but not before one or two incriminating family snaps were captured with me in the offending garb.


Favourite place in the Kibble Valley?


Gisburn Forest is the perfect place for me, ■ Your Local Bingo dvertiser and 1 imes TH Powered by ^ t y ' todays I k


especially on a warm summer's day. I just love ■ biking in that area of the Ribble Valley.


Best re s taurant you’ve ever been to?


properly was when my father died unexpectedly in 2000. He was my hero but I never got to tell him properly.


One item you can’t live without? My iPhone. I'm so busy these days and I use it


for everything from managing my diaiy, e-mails, reminders, keeping in touch and so on. It's the best invention since garlic bread...


Favourite shop? Dawsons Music in Manchester. I've probably


played eveiy guitar in there and they've got a little soundproofed practice room where you can really crank it up.


" Dream car? \

Last time you ciied? I tend not to ciy really, just keep it all in and


mope around feeling sorry for myself when the situation calls for it. Last time I think I cried


- Pet h a tes? People who are ignorant and rude for absolutely


no good reason.


Most embarrassing moment? Going to sleep with my contact lenses in,


waking up in the morning and momentarily thinking 20:20 sight was restored! My wife laughs


about it to this day and I cringe every time it's mentioned.
