About me: I was born in Eritrea, Africa but returned to the UK aged 18 months. Growing up in the seventies / eighties was great fun and from early on Star Wars was always a central part of my life. I'm now a secondary school science teacher who loves dressing up as a stormtrooper / jedi knight whenever possible.

My collections: My principle collection is modern day 3 & 3/4" Star Wars action figures but that's only the tip of the iceberg. I also collect prop replicas, model vehicles, galactic heroes, Force FX lightsabers, art, autographs, costume pieces and many, many other Star Wars related paraphernalia.

My interests: I work as the UK reporter for the best Star Wars Collecting podcast in the galaxy - Star Wars Action News (http://www.swactionnews.com). I love going to Star Wars conventions with my lovely wife Suzanne and in the last year we've been to Celebration Europe in London and Jedi-Con in Dusseldorf. It's not just conventions, we've visited some of the Star Wars filming locations including Caserta Palace and Villa Balbianello in Italy. My house is named Cloud City after the home of Lando Calrissian. My other interests include drinking wine and listening to the music of The Trashcan Sinatras.
