What’s your most played iTune?

Anyone talented, whatever the genre, can make it on to my iPod collection. Howlin’ Wolf was my last addition, but artists as varied as Adele through to Rufus Wainwright via Supertramp are all featured.

What’s your latest online purchase?

I am a keen online shopper. As a typical bloke, I hate shopping in the high street! The last item I bought from eBay was a storage heater.

What have you downloaded recently?

I use the BBC iPlayer for - most recently - Wallander series two.

What games do you play?

I have never progressed beyond Space Invaders.

What’s your most recent bookpurchase?

I am cycling across Ireland in June, so have been shopping for guide books. And a dozen large scale maps of Ireland ().
