Peter Corbet-Smith Peter and I used to dance together. He is very nice and caring person. Actually very, very nice. Unless that is if you are a lamb. In that case, he wants to eat your testicles... (as mention by him once, long time ago ;-) ).
He is a senior developer and works for a big bank in London. Has too many interests for me to even count. He is one of not many people I know who manages to keep a very busy social life in addition to being good at work.
I think we all can take an example from him.
In 2006, he finally bought a house in Croydon and currently spends lots of time doing it up. One thing is for sure - he knows exactly what to look for when you are looking for a builders, electricians, plumbers, etc ..... and this kind of knowledge is invaluable, although I am sure he rather would not know about / have some of the experiences that he has.
He is very happy with Danielle. Check out his facebook.
