home buzz rooms
I'm very used to stages and dressing rooms. And dare I say it, much as I like being at home, I love the buzz of a new hotel room.
stars thinking rocks
I think a lot of ladies get quite scared about people like me, 'rock stars', and it can be hard to meet the right sort of person.
hats aston-martin may
I may be the prat in the hat, that's cool, but I drive an Aston Martin DB5.
self two feet
From 16 to 21 when I was self sufficient and working in factories. I packed batteries, boxes, and make-up with heroin addicts. I have to thank my mum for kicking me out at 16 and making me stand on my own two feet.
two feet kicking
I have to thank my mum for kicking me out at 16 and making me stand on my own two feet - that's how I got here.
clothes fussy
I am quite fussy about clothes.
moon years weather
I love being able to go on local flights when the weather is right. I've popped to the Isle of Wight, Cornwall and been mountain flying in Wales. When I got my licence I was over the moon, it was one of the greatest days of my life - it took two years to get!
nice thinking people
I think it is easy for people to build up an image of what I'm about. I consider myself quite a nice chappy really. I'm decent to people, I stay in and listen to Radio 4.
thinking young-generation world
I think these days a lot of the younger generation feels that the world owes them something. But you've got to get off your backside and you've got to do all the crap stuff, too.
guy needs kind
Every now and again I need to get away from everything. I'm quite a hidey-hole kind of a guy.
bmw car waiting
I didn't get my first car until I was 22. It was a BMW 1602 and now I've got it back I'm waiting to restore it.
difficult gonna home ignore prepared somebody
Then you have to be with somebody who understands your job. Understands there are gonna be dollybirds going, 'Hi I'm Candy,' and be prepared to ignore that. And also be prepared to be there when you get home. That's a difficult job.
pieces small
It's going to be very small ? about 10 or 12 pieces line.
bit car case enjoying likes motor people
It's not a case of 'look at me in my car'; it's more, 'look at the car'. I like the idea of other people enjoying them, because everything has become a bit faceless and nobody likes the motor car any more.
