    I reckon I could be the Chancellor, well being a Yorkshire=man I'm traditionally as tight as a Crab's bum with money lol.

    My hobbies include Xbox gaming, Karaoke singing, Martial Arts, Computer programming, wWeb design and various other computer related stuff.

    @66Mustang The number of cadet Economists who have gone on to great things is staggering.  I won't give names but I am sure you would know some of them if I listed them.  You could do worse than to apply for the programme if it is still running under this administration.  I left in 1995 after being made redundant along with 30% of our staff.

    I have quite a few hobbies now I've thought about it...

    I love reading and have read significantly more since I've finished university. I tend to read mystery or crime non-fiction. I also spend a lot of time writing. I cannot for the life of me write non-fiction but I wish I could.

    In terms of creative, I enjoy crocheting and photography. I'm currently making a blanket but it's been a LONG process.

    On an evening I tend to do puzzles, watch a TV series or documentary. Also guilty of falling down a YouTube hole and getting lost.

    One of my best friends loves Terry Pratchet @Grinchy! It's not my kind of thing, but I do enjoy hearing about characters like Death.  :D

    I used to be a comper, that is someone who enters literally hundreds of competitions!  I won quite a bit including a holiday to Paris, £1500, Sky TV for a year and more hampers than you could shake a stick at.  it was very time-consuming but paid off.

    Nowadays my hobbies are jogging, Netflix and housework  :D

    @66Mustang Thank you! It was so fun waiting for the postman to turn up with something unexpected most days  :) There's a whole comping community on the internet and some of them do amazingly well.

    @Cher_Scope

    I’m just wondering as I have a lot of spare time, “comping” is something I would quite like to do and I actually quite like filling out forms/questionnaires but I have a couple of questions if you wouldn’t mind answering them?

    - Do you have to give a lot of personal details away to lots and lots of different people?

    - How many competitions do you think you entered per competition you won something from?

    Thanks :)
