Hello Folks, I’ve been with Diamond Dust for about eight years now and have done many shows with Martin.
I remember one of my early gigs with my bleached hair in a cowshed - It wasn’t too pleasant; but we all had to start somewhere! I also used to play the music for the roadshows, which I loved doing… I sometimes even went a bit too far with the volume if I like a song that much. We have done gigs all over South Wales … and even in London for the Cartoon Network.
I’ve also involved with Radio Freeway, where I presented for well over eight years now (I feel old). Currently, I help design the Diamond Dust web site and put together all the lovely graphics and layout that you see in front of you. I have designed many sites including my own, which gets over 46,000 people a month visiting, which isn’t bad for a site that was a totally new idea.
Presently, I’m on a Carnival cruise ship in America. It is good fun and something which I never regret doing. The best thing about it is getting to meet so many people from so many different countries around the world – it’s unbelievable! That’s my job at the moment, but I do come home to Swansea now and then just to remind myself what the rain and cold is like!
