Getting to know Tim:
- What was the first concert you attended?
Iron Maiden at Birmingham Odeon on their ‘Number of the Beast’ tour in 1982. Front row, crushed against the stage. Ears rang for a week after. Still love a good live gig. - Where do you most hope to visit?
Antarctica – the ultimate wilderness. - If you could instantly become an expert in something what would it be?
Would be good to be fluent in Te Reo. - What is your pet hate?
Fast food. Neither fast, nor food, usually. - What was your first job?
Unpaid – Librarian. paid – DJ. Quite the dichotomy! - What is the best way to start the day?
Fresh Coffee. Oat milk flat white, thanks. - Who’s your go-to artist when you can’t decide on something to listen to?
Really depends on my mood. More often than not it’s The Vaccines. No wait – Milky Chance. Ah then again, Pearl Jam. Oh, I don’t know! - What’s something you’ve been meaning to try but haven’t gotten around to it?
Astronaut training. They keep asking… - Where is the most interesting place you’ve been?
I’d have to say the Dogon Escarpment in Mali. Powerful landscape, villages cut out of the stone cliffs, a totally different culture, and the world’s strongest millet beer.
