Can you whistle?

Yes.

Ask me anything

How much TV do you watch?

I watch quite little TV compared to what I used to, the only thing I make efforts to watch live is the F1 and Doctor Who, everything else I can just watch online if I miss it so there's not much compulsion to watch TV then.

Ask me anything

Have you ever recommended a book to a friend?

Looking For Alaska (my personal favourite book) and The Killing Joke tend to be books I recommend to people, well worth a read!

Bacon sandwich, failing that a steak sandwich. Screw it I want a steak-wrapped-in-bacon toasted sandwich..you can tell that I'm rather hungry right now.

What do you wish you were better at?

A lot of things.

Ask me anything

Do you believe in aliens or life on other planets?

Absolutely, considering that there's an inconceivable amount of space in the universe I feel there simply has to be other life out there. Plus planets similar to Earth have been discovered and the life that exists out there could even survive on very different planets to ours. Bit of a waste don't you think if we're the only form of life in the universe?

Do you have any hidden talents?

If I do they're choosing to remain hidden for the time being!

What's your favorite scent?

Petrichor is pretty high up there I would say, bacon too, also freshly-baked bread. Many scents.

Ask me anything

If you had kids, what would you name them? :)

I'd be sure they don't have the situation where if their name is called out in a crowd they won't think they are being called instead of someone else like I often was, for some reason I like the sound of Isaac if I had a boy. For a girl I'm not so sure, maybe something to consult my future wife about. Amelia, Mercedes, Summer perhaps?

If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, does it really make a sound?

Yes.

Big question that is! I couldn't pin it down to one thing but it includes things like the sound of 20+ F1 cars screaming past me, being cuddled with the woman I love most, random conversations with my friends, that one awesome picture I just took. Many things my friend, many things.

Ask me anything

What is your idea of beauty in a woman?

I find it hard to explain what I find beautiful in a woman, you could notice how bright their eyes are or how heartwarming their smile is, the littlest thing about a woman you can find beautiful and I guess that's as close to an answer I can give you for now.

Ask me anything

What's the worst injury you've had, and how did it happen?

It's not a big one but it's the worst I've had, I've had a hairline fracture in my left index finger. I got it about 4 years ago in school during a PE lesson playing basketball, unfortunate case where you reach for the ball and your finger gets bent the wrong way. Didn't actually hurt at the time but I remember it swelling up a bit when I got home, showed it to my Mum asking if something looked wrong and she drove me to A&E right there and then.

Ask me anything

What's your astrological sign? Do you think it's representative of who you are?

Apparently I'm an Aquarius, and no I don't think it is. I think that many factors including my upbringing, the friends I've made, where I live define me more than the coincidental link of my birth date and one of many constellations in the sky.

Ask me anything

If you were given the money to start a new business, what business would you open?

Ah but that would be telling, any brainwaves I have I'll save for Dragon's Den!

What do you always carry with you at all times?

There's no one object I carry with me all of the time, but quite often I carry my phone and/or my phone with me. But if I'm not leaving the house then I just put it somewhere I'll easily find it.

Ask me anything

When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up?

My mum told me a tale about this on a car ride not long ago, when I was little she asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up I said 'racing driver' but she said to me that unless we suddenly got rich it probably wasn't going to happen, so then I said 'footballer' but she said to me that they don't have very long careers and would retire early so in response I just said 'fine I'll just be an astronaut then!', but even now I still would want to be a racing driver.

Ask me anything

What would you try if you had no fear?

Not sure, but without fear I think I'd end up doing stupid things along the way what with fear being what helps us stay out of situations we think we'll get hurt in.

Ask me anything

What TV show do you wish was still on the air?

First on my mind would be SM:TV Live, maybe Pot Black, oh Power Rangers got cancelled so I'd like that back aswell.

You're stuck on a desert island. Excluding practical items (food, clothes, suncream), you're allowed 5 things. What do you take?

What religion are you?

I was Christened when I was a baby so as far as that's concerned it makes me more a Christian than any other religion.

Ask me anything

how many people have you had sex with?

One.

Ask me anything

If you were god for a day what would you do?

This is a tough question, I'm not completely sure what I'd do, maybe work out all the mysteries of life or change how people can often value opinions more than facts or make problems in life more easily solvable without resorting to violence.

Ask me anything

What's the story behind your Formspring username?

My college nickname followed by the year I was born.

Ask me anything

How many times have you stood in front of a mirror wearing nothing but a pair of sports socks? If you haven't, do it! It's hilarious.

I don't think I have any sports socks, and as far as the mirror is concerned that only really happens after I've just had a shower or a bath.

Bob Marley or Bob Dylan?

Ask me anything

Is size 14 on a gal fat?

Well I'm not very familiar with dress sizes so I couldn't tell you, but more importantly it doesn't matter because the girl ought to feel happy with her body whatever size she is. As the saying goes big is beautiful.

Well as far as university is concerned with morning lectures I make an effort to get some breakfast in before going to the lecture, otherwise the normal wake-up/freshen up/get dressed razzmatazz.

Ask me anything

If the Internet and TV didn't exist, what would you spend most of your time doing?

Probably reading, writing letters to those I would be able to get in contact with, seeing theatre productions (as films wouldn't exist either), apart from that I can't suppose life would be too different.

Okay, we're locked up in a room with no way out!! Evil kidnappers of doom!! To pass the time, what would you do to try and keep your sanity intact?

What's the first thing that you usually notice about someone you meet?

Ask me anything

is one night better than never?

Depends how it goes, if it's a silly one night stand and the other person leaves in the morning before you wake up obviously it won't be pleasant. But if it's a night you're truly happy you had and it all went fantastic then of course it's better than never.

Ask me anything

Favourite TV Programme?

Non-sport related I'd say Top Gear, Doctor Who and QI are all very close contenders! Yourself?

Ask me anything

So how are things going with the girl you liked, my darling?

Not much has changed to be honest, I'm putting aside thoughts of a relationship for now because I'm not even completely sure we're as good friends as we were before :/ we keep having conversations where I end up having to steer it in order to keep it going so it feels like she doesn't enjoy talking to me. I could be mistaken you never know, just would feel nice if she started conversations more often just to put my mind at rest.

Ask me anything

How do you feel about Carroll coming to Liverpool?

Bit of a shame to be honest, I liked Carroll and he provided us with some much-needed goals, would rather he stay at Newcastle.

Ask me anything

How's 2011 treating you so far?

Up and down as ever, feels just like 2010 did to be honest. Not much has changed.

Ask me anything

Why is it less likely to happen?

Well she hasn't said yes to me yet, and also bit easier to revise for exams than to revise how to get the person you like to like you back.

Ask me anything

Any resolutions for this new year? :)

Just one so far, well maybe two. First one being to pass this year at university, and the other to be with a special someone I have feelings for (but I think the latter being less likely to happen than the former).

Ask me anything

What's the best thing that happened to you in 2010?

One of the bests things I can immediately think of is having my first on-stage performance with the university's drama society, I didn't mess up my lines and was generally very happy with how it all went.

Ask me anything

17 Questions

Before I do this I shall ask whether my readers/followers would like me to do this in video form as technically this was a YouTube thing but for now I present it in blog form. Oh and whoever is reading this, you're tagged.

1. How did you get your YouTube screen-name?
I can’t remember exactly how I created ‘horrendousblah’ but I do have a habit of making up phrases so perhaps it was one of those.

2. If you could change your name to anything what would you change it to and why?
I’m ok with the name I have at the moment but if I was forced to make a choice then somehow the names ‘Charles’ or ‘Isaac’ spring to mind. As to why I guess to me they sound sophisticated and I like that sort of thing, wouldn’t mind calling my child either of those if I have a son.

3. If you could go back in time and give your younger self advice what would you say and why?
I’m bad enough at taking my own advice but that’s beside the point. Maybe something along the lines of “Try not to worry about life and the way it’s going for you, it will all work out in the end”

4. How old were you when you learned to blow bubbles in gum?
Quite a while ago I guess, maybe 11?

5. What did you want to be when you were younger?
As far as my memory serves me I’ve always wanted to be a Formula 1 racing driver, I’m completely obsessed with the sport but to get there you either need to be rich, the child of a previous world champion or have family willing to do anything to get you there. I don’t think I had that. My mum tells me of a time when I was little and she asked me this and I went from F1 driver to professional footballer. When she said those two weren’t so likely I went in a huff and went “Fine I’ll be an astronaut then!”

6. What do you buy in Starbucks?
Hot chocolate, with marshmallows and cream if I feel like spending even more money than I should on a hot chocolate, quite expensive that place.

7. What’s the hardest you’ve ever laughed?
What normally happens when I laugh my hardest is that I cry a bit and do that thing where you can’t make any noise because you’re laughing too hard. I remember one time at Drama where I was playing Park Bench with a group of friends (Google it) and my friend Marie sat next to me and started talking in Norwegian, I was in the middle of drinking my Coke at the time and I just paused because I was trying to work out what she was saying. Suddenly one of the group starts laughing and I start laughing too the more she talk and it got to the point where I couldn’t stop myself laughing and ended up in the aforementioned condition. Turns out she was just asking for a sip of my drink!

8. If you could play any musical instrument what would you play and why?
I play drums at the moment so I’d either want to be amazing at that or be able to play the piano very well. I’ll go with piano. But should that not work out I wouldn’t mind the harmonica.

9. What’s your favourite thing to do when you’re upset?
Usually I don’t end up thinking of what to do to make myself not upset anymore when I am, which is strange when I think about it. Old habits die hard. But a nice conversation or more preferably a cuddle would surely help, unfortunately cuddles aren’t readily available for me.

10. What’s your favourite movie?
The Cat Returns, without question. I could spend too much of your time saying why I like it so much but I’d encourage you to watch it yourself and tell me what you think of it.

11. What’s the food you can’t live without?
Chips. If I could I’d have them with every meal (bar dessert) and more often than not I do! Steaks are a close second.

12. What’s your favourite dessert?
Profiteroles would be a good contender for this spot, maybe mint ice cream.

13. Favourite pizza topping?
I don’t like pizza.

14. Would you rather have the power to read minds or be invisible?
Well if I had the power to read minds I’d hope it would help me in social situations through better understanding how other people are feeling and being to help them better. Also the movie What Women Want springs to mind. But being invisible would help for more mischievous things but if you get trapped somewhere you don’t want to be then patience better be a good quality, oh and the ability to be super quiet so that you don’t get discovered. So I’ll go for reading minds.

15. What did you do for your last birthday?
My Mum drove up to see me at university and during a meal at a restaurant gave me some presents, afterwards I joined Drama lot and the day wasn’t so bad.

16. If you could have one selfish wish, what would you wish for and why?
If it’s selfish then I can’t say lottery because I’d use some of the proceeds to help Mum pay for the house among other things (in the event of winning the jackpot), so I guess I would wish for the girl I have feelings for to feel the same for me as I do for her so we could be together.

17. What does OMGHHKP mean to you?
Oh Must Garfield Have Heavy Knitting Problems?
