Interests and Other Information
In addition to my interest in computers I have a passion for music and sport alike. My main love is cricket, and the highlight of my career thus far has been to go on tour to India with the Yorkshire County Cricket School. This tour was captained by England's Darren Gough. After spending a number of years playing in the Bradford League I now play for Heckmondwike CC, still opening the bowling attack with lightening pace.
In the winter I play football, although only 5-a side it is enough fitness to keep me going until the next cricket season.
