Welcome to this week's Member of the Moment submission! This time around it's @montana !!
Describe yourself in 3 words: laid back, friendly, determined
Current car: Deep Black Clio 197
First car: Fiat Uno 1.0 45e (with a cherry bomb backbox, sounded like a tractor - loved it)
Why you love clio197.net
Friendly members, lots of good advice, no brash / keyboard warriors.
Favourites
Food:Steak
Drink:Lancaster Bomber (prefer draught over bottles)
Holiday destination:Wales (in an around the Brecon Beacons) \ Adenau, because Nurburgring!
Film:Snatch
Film star:Tom Hardy (probably because of having watched Peaky Blinders / Legend recently)
Sport:BTCC (How can you not watch this over F1 is beyond me)
Hobby:Lifting weights and more recently Crossfit, plus anything relating to technology! Does watching Youtube Nurburgring videos count? – Seem to do a lot of that!
Pornstar:Hmmm i have no idea
TV show:Mr Robot http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4158110/
TV presenter/personality:Idris Elba (if you havent seen Luther, check it out)
Song:Tiesto - Adagio for strings (Kevin and perry all the way!)
Band:Find myself listening alot to Bring Me The Horizon recently (I am pretty sure they are a Emo/Teeny bopper band though, oops!)
Computer game:Got to be GTA, although dont play much these days.
Website (other than 197.net):CS,PH and at the moment, lots of SQL related sites (have an exam soon)
Dream 3 car garage:
1 E93 M3 (Convertible) --Not setting the bar high but there we go.
2 22B Impreza
3 RS 16 (just because)--The above list is by no means exhaustive, number 3 is likely to change like the wind
Fantasy Partner to:
Marry:Jennifer Aniston
Have a one night stand with:Gemma Atkinson (Emmerdale)
Celebrity I'd most like to punch:Simon Cowell
One thing I am excellent at:Planning and writing lists
One thing I am terrible at:Waiting (on others / in a queue / in traffic)
Proudest moment:Obtaining a 1st class degree.
Most embarrassing moment:
Attending the mandatory H&S at work training, being shown how to lift a box of paper from the floor ("this is the most you should ever lift in a work situation…wah wah"). Being into my lifting , i saw it as an opportunity to get a single squat in (for free) so i volunteered to demonstrate to the group. I stood over the box and dropped into a deep squat - now this normally wouldn’t be an issue (max squat 170kg) with a little box of paper weighing around 5kg, however i didnt account for the fact that i had never squatted (or had need to!) in my work pants...so queue me gripping the box and standing up in a controlled manner, only to hear an almighty rip - the pants had split all the way down my bum crack (ALL THE WAY!) I stood up rather embarrassed - what didn’t help was being observed by 15+ women (nurses etc), the trainer then screamed, "I hope you have got underwear on!" - Jesus , of course i have ! (I said). So i am stood there, not really knowing what to do and she pulls out this bloody needle and thread from her bag, "Here you go, go to the toilet and sew them up!". Good god, i couldn’t get out of the room quick enough. Examining the damage in the toilet i had a good 10" to sew up. I quickly did this and then gingerly re-entered the training. Thankfully everyone had a good old laugh at my expense. I think that was the last time my face involuntarily went a bright red colour.
I can only imagine the stories that followed this event when they had all returned to work !
Pet hate:People lip smacking when they eat (Working in an office emphasises people's traits like this, drives me nuts)
Favourite chat up line:Do you come here often?
Favourite joke:What did the pirate say on his 80th birthday...Aye Matey (bad i know)
Question from @Micah:Have you ever seen a ghost or had a supernatural experience?Unfortunately (or fortunately!) not. I do believe that stuff exists so its not as though i am a non-believer. Actually our house is supposed to be haunted (previous owner committed suicide in the cellar), the neighbours won’t even go in there but it doesn’t bother me. Quite often when exercising in the very same room , i have half been expecting to experience something like a tab on the back or something being launched across the room but nothing yet.
Member who you nominate to be interviewed next and why: RossWoods93 because had a brief chat at CSF and seemed like a nice guy. Plus he has a LY!
Random question to ask that Member:If you could have a super power for a day, what would it be and why?

Next up will be @RossWoods93 - keep an eye out on your PM inbox Ross for the questions coming through shortly
