Five years ago, buoyed by the excitement of the Winter Olympics taking place in Vancouver, 好色先生TV鈥檚 Emily Wright grabbed her salopets and headed for the nearest slopes she could find - which, inevitably, led her to Milton Keynes. She was also joined at the indoor ski slope by Michael 鈥楨ddie the Eagle鈥� Edwards, the once British ski jumper, whose last-placing in the 1988 Winter Games has become part of British sporting lore. Having hung up his goggles - professionally, at least - Edwards explained the motivation behind his move into building and property development, having come from a long line of builders. As Emily Wright reports:

鈥淲orking for myself as a builder means I can down tools at any moment to do PR jobs and them come back to things here with no fuss,鈥� he smiles. 鈥淚t鈥檚 just so flexible. It鈥檚 great.鈥�

For now [Edwards] is focused on doing smaller roofing and building contracts for clients in his local area of Stroud. He enjoys the work but says he needs to be careful of time wasters. 鈥淪ometimes people call me out for a quote and it becomes clear it was just so they could meet Eddie the Eagle,鈥� he says.
