Recently I was involved in a "get to know each other" exercise with a new team. We each had to fill in a form answering some questions and then we had to guess which set of answers belonged to which person.
After the event I reflected on my answers and wonder what impression the other folk made of me based on my answers. What do you think?
WHAT IS THE FIRST EVER DOWNLOAD/CD/TAPE/RECORD YOU BOUGHT?
Ballroom Blitz by Sweet. I'm a glam rock child of early 70's London. I knew all the words to this song.
FAVOURITE SONG?
That's pretty obvious. Mr Bojangles by Sammy Davis Jr.
FAVOURITE HOBBY?
I don't really have hobbies. I read, watch a few films, watch lots of rugby but my main hobby is Tai Chi.
FAVOURITE DISH?
Sausage and mash. I wish I didn't have to keep going out to posh meals. I also accept pie and mash.
FAVOURITE FILM?
Has to be the one and only Bladerunner. "I've...seen...things". What a scene. What a film.
FAVOURITE TRAVEL DESTINATION?
So many places. So many choices. But I went with San Francisco. I just like the city and get a bit excited whenever I have a reason to visit.
WORST EVER FASHION FAUX PAS?
Well, I used to have a bright white suit that I used to wear with a purple shirt and purple shoes. I also had a purple suit that I wore with a white shirt and white shoes. Both combinations with afro and dark glasses of course. Thankfully pre-digital camera days so I don't think there are any photos out there. But this was in the 70's so I think I was actually very cool at the time.
So I have to go with the time I went out wearing brown corduroy trousers and a brown corduroy jacket. Top to toe cords. It wasn't my finest fashion moment.
THREE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE YOU
1) Wierd
2) Passionate
3) Loyal
(I asked my wife and son what three words best described me and they both said "wierd" without even thinking about it!)
THREE THINGS ABOUT YOU. TWO ARE TRUE, ONE IS NOT. GUESS THE FALSE ONE
a) I once played James Bond in a film
b) I once played rugby on national TV
c) I met Prince William and Katherine
I think its fair to say that after reading these answers you pretty much know everything there is to know about me!

You left out your favourite book, despite saying you like to read.
...You just blew your cover!
A is false.
Ah, "favourite book" wasn't one of the questions. I would have struggled to answer (so many) but would probably have gone for Ben Okri's The Famished Road.
No, A is true - although "film" might have been overstating it a bit :)
