What is your favorite hobby? If I had the time I’m sure I could evolve it past wine.
What is your favorite travel destination? Anywhere with a beach and hot men.
Are you married? Not yet, but if Wildthing is reading this – you know where I am. *wink wink*
Do you have children? No
What kind of pets do you have, if any? What are their names? So I have a cat called Kit.
Are you a sports fan? If so, what is your favorite team? I enjoy what I fondly call spectator sports. Sports that can keep my occupied visually. So diving, running, football.
What causes are you passionate about? I’m passionate about any cause that puts people and their success first
Do you volunteer? If so, where? I am a non stipendiary Priest
What is an interesting fact about you? I would guess being a Priest and a gay one is quite interesting. Its unusual for it to be public knowledge.
Have you continued your education past college or university with career development seminars or classes? What kind? Well I guess not overly work related. Gained my intermediate amateur radio license, qualifications for taxi licensing and alcohol licensing.Did you know what profession you wanted to work in when you started college? Well no

Why did you choose to work in your industry? Well Taxis made it easy to study theology for my Priesthood because I’m self employed I can stop and start.
Why do you like your job? Well both can be rewarding and tiresome equally. However the ability to grow with others is a huge plus point
How would you describe your career? Tangible. Its where it is and jumps when it needs to.
If you could give a younger person career advice, what would it be? Its your life and what you decide today may not be what you want tomorrow, but that’s ok!
Are you involved in any professional/ non-profit/sports organizations? If so, do you have a title or rank within these organizations? So within my denomination I am a Diocesan Bishop which is basically an area manager.
If you were granted 1 wish, what would you wish for? I guess I would love people to accept others more. I find the world is full of people who struggle to understand others and then use that as a barrier for acceptance. You know none of us understand everything, but a smile and acceptance goes a long way!
So to give you guys a bit more on me - I've attached some pics - my desk - where I write sermons and kill people. My cat, My beautiful taxi - Mercedes S350d Long AMG Line. Me out at gay pride.
Thanks for reading and as always. If i'm AFK on the game its because i'm on grindr as well.
Thanks to all of you for making the ten years so far be amazing and I love each and everyone of you!!

Im so sorry,,as you can see many of us have been in the same spot,,its never easy even if you know they are in a better place. They will always be missed and you will always think of them. A conversation I had with my mother in law when she was dying is that she said she is afraid everyone would forget her....I was flabbergasted,,she was a very powerfrul woman,,I asked her why she thought that,,she said because she knows ppl dont always go to grave sites,,i asked her when was the last time she thought of her mother and she said every day,,so I asked her why visiting your grave was the only way we remember ppl??? I told her she would never be forgotten..just because we dont interact every day does not mean we dont talk to you or think of you every day!!!
