Let’s just say we do get there and start to make it look nice, within a few years we will be moving to Neptune, because we’ll destroy planet Mars too. Continue reading Marz to Farz

What’s a cultural tradition from another country that you wish existed in yours? Cultural traditions from other countries like Japan or South Korea, discipline, not forced but the way the people are. They seem so proud of their land and respect people and their own way of life. I love seeing this type of humanity and how great the world would be if more countries were like these nations. Keep…

What are the biggest mistakes people make when visiting your country? What are the biggest mistakes people make when visiting England or if you want to involve the other great nations on our land the United Kingdom. I mean what a great name that is, ‘The United Kingdom,’ sounds magical doesn’t it? Everyone is different and it’s individuals at the end of the day, but the biggest mistake is not…

What’s a song that always puts you in a good mood? The song that always puts me in a good mood is: ‘Mr Blue Sky’ by British rock band ELO. (Electric Light Orchestra) Formed in the 70s by Jeff Lynne until there last tour in 2014. “Sun is shinin’ in the skyThere ain’t a cloud in sightIt’s stopped rainin’, everybody’s in the playAnd don’t you knowIt’s a beautiful new day? Hey.” Give it a listen…

What’s a fear you’ve overcome — and how did you do it? One fear I have is deep water, so to try and overcome it or help me a bit better was to learn to swim. So I started to attend adult swimming classes a few yesrs back and I did learn to swim a bit, but I was very un-fit…I didn’t realise it till I started swimming. I have not been swimming since that day and I am still scared of deep…

What’s the best way to build self-confidence? I truly believe that the best way to build self-confidence is to believe in your own abilities, values and morals. Don’t be a loud mouth spreading your opinion about, I’m a very quiet person, I like to do a lot of thinking but I’m confident in the way I approach people. Just because someone is loud and shouting doesn’t mean they are confident, so…

How do you build loyal subscribers? I don’t really know that much how to build loyal subscribers, but what I like to do it respond to comments.

Do you believe in soulmates? Why or why not? Do I believe in soulmates definitely, I have always believed that there is someone out there for everyone. You have to put yourself in the right situation, they may just pass and you at first miss the connection, but they’re there within arms reach. So keep your eyes open and you will meet the person of your dreams, if you haven’t already. Continue…

What’s something you’d love to see in the future, but know you probably won’t live to witness? Something I would love to see, but won’t see it in my life time and it most probably will get worse, is normality in the human race. The world is mad, people are so different to when I was younger, everyone as to find a problem, protests over things that don’t matter to them, they find everything…

Do you believe in minimalism? Do I believe in minimalism? Yes I sort of do. I watched this YouTube video, well Jeni was watching it and we took the ladies advice. It goes like this: ‘one in, one out’, just saying you have tonnes of something like mine was books and your shelves are full. Before you buy something new look and think, is there something I don’t need? So I can replace it, also…

What’s a moment in your life that felt like it was straight out of a movie? A moment to me that felt just like a movie was meeting Jeni my wife on a blind date, we went to a place in Manchester city centre called ‘The Printworks’, it’s full of bars and night clubs, very popular. We arranged to meet to talk about a charity sponsored parachute jump, but it was love at first sight, just like in…

Well I wanted to post early so here I am on my walk and the only thing that catches my eye is, stock and  pump trucks and hard work ahead and I’m knackered.

What’s the first book you ever finished and still remember to this day? I remember it well, I remember it that well I’ve forgotten the name, but I do remember it was a marketing book for business and it was published by Virgin Books. It was only a small book, but it was about different types of marketing, real exciting out of the box ideas. I didn’t just read it once I read it multiple times…

What’s the most profound piece of advice you’ve been given? Did you take it? The the most profound bit of advice I got, was off my dad. ‘Do It Yourself’, incase when I had so many business ideas going and I had two businesses running but I had people with the skill running them. I remember being upset because I couldn’t get my point over to these people and because they were the skilled one,…

If you had an unlimited budget for 24 hours, what would you do? If I had unlimited funds for 24 hours, I would have to make some home improvements. I couldn’t travel long distances to see the world due to the cats, so get my roof done up, new windows and doors. Continue reading Home Improv

What’s a show that had the perfect series finale? What show had the perfect series finale, well for me it had to be from a British television sitcom that was in the 90’s, it was called: ‘One Foot in the Grave’. It stared Richard Wilson and Annette Crosbie, Richard Wilson played the crumpy Victor Meldrew who got in to sum scrapes. He used to moan all the time with his poor wife Margaret played…

If you could have dinner with any philosopher, who would it be? If I could have dinner with a philosopher it would have to be Socrates, I bet he would have been so interesting. The  Greek philosopher known for the “Socratic method” of questioning assumptions to stimulate critical thinking.
