At his work place in Hampshire, he’s currently more of a celebrity as he asserts. “I show up at work and my workmates like to tell everyone on site who I am. No matter where I am, people point out my name above doors ” He asserts.
“My name is the only one that is ‘mandatory’ to have displayed in every language in every building, in every country all around the world.

” I just love comedy. I love how people work and all the different kind of responses I get” he says
