      IT Support as a job so tend to steer clear of computers outside of work if i can help it. Got a 17 month old little girl so she takes up plenty of time along with our 5 year old labradoodle. When chance allows i play cricket and will be playing again this coming season, season number 27 for me.

        The kids take up all your time. I'm surprised you have time for sport

          Very understanding wife thankfully who doesnt mind me disappearing for most of a Saturday to play. To be fair me disappearing on Saturdays to play is nothing new for her as i've done it for the 15 years we've been together. There was a spell where i was playing a decent level and there was some pretty long travelling involved around most of Derbyshire as well. These days i've dropped down a bit so the leagues are regionalised North and South cutting down on the travelling plus the club i'm at is in a very nice location and very family friendly.

          Not sure how much longer i'll be playing though, been diagnosed with early onset arthritis in my knees, mainly my right one, due to wearing them out from playing cricket as i'm a bowler and they've just taken loads of hammer over the years. I can play but the few days afterwards arent much fun!!

                not much time with 6 kids but trips out to the park, day trips further afield, and the odd mon to friday holidays (england and wales have different term times so a short break is a decent price), off to Hull again next month (300-odd miles so a nice run for the siggy)

                computer games, films and washing the cars then, was never fussed on washing the cars but this got me spending more time and pride on the proccess

                  It’s hang on or fall off . You feel like king of the road, the sheer acceleration is faster than pretty much anything you come across on the road, the adrenaline rush as the front wheel decides it’s done too much and fancies abit of fresh air [emoji23][emoji23] scary but very fun
