If you weren't at Audas what would be your dream job?

Hugh Hefners job when he gives up through old age!

Away from Audas:

I like to spend time off with my wife and kids, as a shopfitter for the past 15 yrs that has been impossible as I have had to sacrifice my life to better theirs as means of working away and weekends etc, I just enjoy being in my family's company, could say football but hey I come from Bradford so lets not go there!

Dinner Invite (who would you invite)

As my father passed away recently it would be to invite my Father for tea one last time and talk about the good times we had when he was around.

Favorite book, film, music, holiday?

Films - True Romance, Shawshank Redemption, Schwarzenegger movies, I'm a fan of his films.
Holiday - Las Vegas, feeling the 0g gravity 1400ft in the air looking down on Las Vegas Boulevard.
Favourite music has got to be 90s dance, rave scene music - I enjoyed my clubbing days.
Have not read a book since age of 6 so guess it would be 'Rodger Red Hat' and 'Jennifer Yellow Hat', all the ladybird collection books, lol.

Time machine - A period in time, place etc..

The birth of my son and daughter, them riding their bikes for the first time, my wife on our wedding day and the memories with the ones I love that are no longer with us.

Best things in Life

• Son/daughter learning to ride a bike, tie his own laces.

One thing I'd save in a fire?

Myself! Then the goldfish! No definitely pictures and possessions.
