Interests outside cricket: Family (Kerys and the boys, Dylan and Calvin).
Rugby (the only real man's sport after cricket).
Journalism that kicks corporate PR in the nuts.
Environmental protection.
Cricketing experience: School, various teams for newspapers where I have worked.
Best and/or worst cricketing memories:
Best - Scoring the winning runs for Lamma CC to win the Saturday League in 2002/03.
Captaining Lamma when everyone else went on tour (we were battered, as were the tourists).
Top scoring with 82no for LCC at HKU.
The never-ending post-game Saturday nights with the boys at Barco (as was).
Worst - Having the end chopped off my left index finger because of a compound fracture sustained while catching someone out for LCC.
Reason(s) for joining Lamma C.C.: Alex Price and Al McMillan hooked me up from my time at the SCMP back in 2000. Best club in HK by a country mile!
Favourite international cricket player: Super Kev (for ability, not attitude)
