TWO MINUTE INTERVIEW

What do you enjoy doing when you’re not at work?

I like Wing Chun Kung Fu, playing guitar and spending time with my son. I’m also keen on comedy programmes like The Inbetweeners – and of course anything related to computers and technology stuff, obviously!

Likes and dislikes?

I hate London tubes and Marmite, but I love Krispy Kreme doughnuts – mmmmm!

What would you have done if you hadn’t gone into IT?

Probably been a rock guitarist! I play, but don’t read sheet music, instead I prefer to pick tunes out myself by ear.

Editor’s Note

Tony played in a college band but claims he can’t remember its name, and that no photos or recordings exist! College life also saw him produce, edit and star in his own film, before he was seduced by the 'glamour' of the civil service. He is also our resident Homer Simpson – what with the Krispy Kreme doughnuts, and a habit of saying ‘doh’ anytime anyone accuses him of being less than intelligent! Which of course is not the case . . .
