I have a great passion for the Martial arts, which extends beyond just watching the latest Steven Segal flick. I currently suffer from the Japanese fighting arts of Ju-Jitsu and Aikido, which as well as keeping me fit, it also helps keep my mind off music for several hours a week while I am battling for my life against either a 4 foot midget or a 7 foot giant (the midget always wins!).

My other great passion is for food. I like nothing better than to go to restaurants and order the strangest thing of the menu. I also love to cook; my nigiri sushi and haggis pasta are my real specialties.
