GPWA Times Magazine - Issue 51 - November 2021

Do you gamble online or at land-based casinos? I would gamble at land-based casinos for an event such as a friend’s birthday, however, when I do have a bet it is mainly online. I used to be guilty of having a 20-fold football accumulator each week, which would return a ridiculous amount if I won, however, I now favor season-long bets, for example, a team to win the league or finish in the top four, etc. If you could have dinner with three people, living or dead, who would they be? I am afraid I am a bit of a history geek, so my guests would probably be Emperor Augustus (First Roman Emperor), Henry VIII and Queen Victoria. Name one thing that people reading this magazine don’t know about you. I have a pet tortoise who is currently 22 years old, but will likely live to over 100, and therefore I will probably have to leave him in my will to someone. Any takers, please let me know! How has the COVID-19 pandemic affected you both professionally and personally? Professionally it is has meant that I have completed the majority of my working hours at home as bet365 has followed all of the government guidance regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. This has led to me having to adapt to a very different way of working. For example, I much prefer talking to people face to face, however, video calling has been my life for the past year. But now, the majority of restrictions have been lifted I think it has left me with an appreciation of the little things, such as going around for a cup of tea with my grandparents, going out for meals with friends and giving my parents a hug. What are your hobbies? What do you do when you are not working? I use to go to the gym before COVID-19 hit. Since we went into lockdown, I bought a lot of home gym equipment so this is what I now do to pass the time. I am also a keen reader and film watcher, with The Lord of the Rings trilogy being my favorite film franchise. I am also a wannabe gardener, in the sense that I really want to have my own vegetable patch, but I currently don’t have the time to do it. And finally, I would quite like to take up golf properly at some point, however, at the moment when I strike a golf ball it is just as likely to go backward as it is forward!
