A bit about myself....
Hi, I'm Andy, born and raised in the UK and now living in sunny Stockholm with my wife. I own and run a UK online office furniture store and am also the CEO & founder of e-tainmentnews. I don't have any kids right now, but they say practice makes perfect.....! I'm into rock music, travel, working and hanging out with friends right now and am always looking for that 'new sound' to blow me away.....
So how did you get started doing what you do?
Luck really, I did some work experience at the Hammersmith Odeon (famous concert venue) in London whilst at college and got offered a job
What are you working on at the moment?
With the office furniture business pretty slow right now, I am concentrating all my time and efforts on developing e-tainmentnews to make it into a huge european entertainment social and information site
What are your favorite / worst aspect(s) of your job?
Fave : Working for yourself realising that everything you achieve is down to you, flexible working environment
Worst : No regular salary, can be good and bad!
If you weren’t doing what you are now, what other job would you like to be doing?
If I hadn't started working at the Hammersmith Odeon I would have liked to work within the sports or travel industries
If you could travel to any part of the world, where would you go and why?
Australia and South Africa - places where you can see animals in their natural surroundings
When not working what do you do for entertainment, relax?
Right now it's mainly work, but I try to spend time with my wife hanging out with friends whenever possible
If you could choose to have dinner with anyone alive or dead, who would it be and why?
My grandfather who I never met as he died in WW2, but he was a spy and it would be cool to find out what he did as well as what it was like to live in that time
