Q&A
When I am not working...
Teleportation. I'm not a fan of travelling anywhere and always dreamed of teleporting to work & social events. Working from home is the closest I'll get, the teleporter being the corridor between my bedroom and my home office!
On my desert island I would take...
My cat. He's a great hunter and could feed me with delicious rodents. And if he doesn't do his job, I'll get at least one decent meal before I die..
I like to take walks in the country that end at a pub, and enjoy spending sunny days in the garden with family & friends. I've also taken up Padel recently, which is a sport best described as the love-child of Tennis and Squash.
