What was the last thing that made you:

-laugh with abandon - Dumb answer but my son tickling my feet and him finding it hilarious which made me laugh more, which made him laugh more.. .etc etc.

-cry like a baby - I cry all the time now, not really like a baby but have a little sob at sad things like RSPCA commercials, can't actually remember the last time I had a really good cry

-angry - All the time!! I keep getting emails from idiots who want something stupid, or blatantly lie about something, I doubt my blood pressure is good.

 

You have a wonderful sense of humor. Do people take offense quite often or just go with it? - I never (rarely) actively go out to offend anyone, I enjoy a good debate / argument but my intention generally would be to spark conversation and debate, people generally get offended when they run out of defence on a topic. My friends know I push the limits of what is generally perceived as polite conversation and I think they enjoy a bit of shock now and again. My humour / general id is what it is. Take it or leave it, I'll rarely apologise for it. If people don't like it they can hang out with someone else, doesn't bother me.

Do you envisage staying in Norwich for ever? - Nothing is forever, stuff changes, quite happy at the moment but who knows what's going to happen or what direction your life might go. Digging your heels in an not budging because of fear or comfort is no way for a human to live, go where life takes you (within reason obviously).

 

What is your dream holiday? - My dream holiday would be one where I don't need a holiday to unwind afterwards and not be faced with x weeks of work when I get back to normality... But I know what you're asking... There's a million places I want to see, the poles, space, Cuba, Mexico, Egypt (in the 70s), Singapore, Kenya anywhere I've not been basically. There's no one place I want to go above others. But with a 2.5 year old there are certain practicalities that need to be taken into consideration (as well as fiscal commitment!)

Are you gay? - No, I do wish I liked penis as when I was single I definitely would have got laid more, however it's ladies that float my boat.

This is actually one of the best qualities to look for in a friend as far as I'm concerned.

I tend to be the friend who encourages people like you to say/do things for a little bit of shock value.

I didn't get along well in catholic school, as you can imagine.

Did you speed up the video of your ride or do you go that fast? I was terrified just watching. Can't you hook yourself to a car and be pulled along?

Posted

Did you speed up the video - No. That's all actual speed

 

Dont you feel nervous doing that? - I don't really take risks. The only bad bit in the video was the lights turning green unexpectedly at the end so had to get across the traffic. That was stupid on my part and utterly avoidable.

 

Have you ever been to the states? - yep did New York, Atlantic City and Phili many many years ago.

 

Do you like cookies? - Of course!

^^^ 40? clearly a big boy!

 

I think people who are straight up themselves are plain fabulous, it's a wonderful trait.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
