Went to school! I worked part-time at my local climbing centre whilst doing my A-levels, since then I've always worked in the industry. |

A 14,000ft tandem skydive - fantastic! |

Everything! I do so many different things throughout the day that it's always interesting. |

| What do you do for fun? |
Try and grow vegetables on my allotment, with varying success! Go running or swimming, though not as often as I should! |

To have a little house in the countryside and be able to keep my own chickens, and a few goats too! |
| What’s your favourite… |
|
| …climb/walking route, etc? |
Right-hand Route at the Roaches - it's not hard but it's still enjoyable! |
| …river/paddling venue, etc? |
Somewhere scenic - Loch Shiel is really beautiful. |

Haven't got a clue, I love to read and there's too many to choose from. I really enjoyed "The Shadow of the Wind!" by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, and I love Harry Potter! |

I'm barmy about my cat, he's lovely! |
