What is your favourite thing to do in your spare time?
Every spare moment I get I spend hanging out with my 20-month-old son.

What do you enjoy about it?
I'm just constantly laughing with him. It's just a barrel of laughs. He's getting to that age now where he's getting a character and he's starting to tell me things. Like he'll tell me to sit and stay and all that kind of stuff, which I think is really funny. He's giving me instructions and he's telling me what to do now, which I think is just really cute. He's only just started talking and now he's bossing me around.

Is it expensive?
No, not at all. He's just happy with absolutely anything. We can get hours of fun playing with a toilet roll.

What do your friends and family think about what you do in your spare time?
They think it's awesome. I take him to gigs and all sorts of things. I think they think it's pretty cool that there's this little kid who can hang out amongst Shape Shifter and backstage and on the road.
