Top 13 Things You Never Knew About Me

Okay, today let’s change the pace here.

Instead of the usual weight loss tips and healthy eating plans that you see on here I want to give you a bit of an insight into what makes me tick just so you know that I’m actually a real person who enjoys good food and good times.

So you’re going to see what some of my favourite things are.

I practice what I preach but I also enjoy my cheat meals and being a normal person.

Drumroll, here I go…

Favourite Band: Dave Matthews Band. Back when I was a kid it was Bon Jovi, Guns N Roses and I loved 2Pac too.

Favourite Album: Under The Table & Dreaming – Dave Matthews Band

Favourite Meal: Homecooked Spaghetti Bolognase (my wifes or my mums) followed by my mums Lemon Cheesecake – it’s a rarity to get this and when I do it’s like gold!

Favourite Drink: Dos Equis for beer and Bundaberg Rum Lime n Dry for spirits. I love a good merlot wine – David Hook from the Hunter Valley.

Favourite Movies: A Night At The Roxbury – I love Will Ferrell movies. Old School, Top Gun, Gladiator, Remember The Titans and ganster movies like The Godfather trilogy.

Favourite TV Show: Entourage. This is a recent edition to my life. Around Christmas time I breezed through all 5 seasons on DVD and can’t wait for season 6 to be released here. I love it!

When I Was A Kid I Wanted To Be: A Parramatta football player. I also wanted to a writer when I was in primary school as well as a footy star.

Favourite Sports Teams: Parramatta Eels Rugby League, NSW Waratahs for Super 14 Rugby, Atlanta Braves Baseball, LA Lakers Basketball

2 Sports I Can’t Stand: Soccer, Golf. Sorry but I’d rather watch grass grow

Favourite Places I’ve Been: I can’t seperate Santorini, Florence, Rome, Paris, Hawaii, Bourbon Street New Orleans and Las Vegas. I love em all.

Santorini Sunset - I love a good sunset especially on the water!

Place I Want To Visit: Ireland. I’ve always wanted to go and visit Ireland. Irish people are friendly, funny and enjoy a beer, good music and good time. Sounds like my type of place.

My Perfect Weekend: It’d start Friday night with dinner at my favourite restaurant for the best pizza in Sydney at Sapori di Roma in Burwood.

I’d train with my wife in the morning, go to the races or the pub during the day for a punt (I love a bet), go to the footy that night to watch Parra kick some poor teams behind.

Next day would be spent catching up with mine and my wifes family over a nice bbq or at a nice outdoor restaurant on the water in Darling Harbour or Circular Quay followed by a Dave Matthews Concert that night.

My Hottest Celebrity: Jennifer Hawkins. Back when I was a young fella at school it was Elle Macpherson (who still looks pretty hot right now!)
