Your idea of perfect happiness?

Being able to sit in front of a koi pond, sipping wine at the end of the day.

Your greatest fear?

Not having time to sit alone sipping wine beside a koi pond.

Greatest achievement?

Learning to swim the front crawl  at 42 so that I could race in the Ironman triathlon. Along the way, I drank lots of pool water, overcame my fear of open waters and managed to complete the leg each time, even if I’m usually one of the last out!

What do you value most in your friends?

Loyalty.

On what occasion do you lie?

When saying the truth can hurt the other party.

What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery?

A loss of freedom: Real or perceived.

Who is your hero of fiction?

Hobbes of Calvin and Hobbes. He gives sagely wisdom that is still relevant.

Your favourite writers?

John Steinbeck, Haruki Murakami, Roddy Doyle, Khaled Hosseini, Irving Wallace, JD Salinger.

What qualities should a gentleman possess?

The humility to ask for direction.

What qualities should a lady possess?

The ability to read maps.

One thing you would change about yourself?

A head full of jet black hair like my mother.

Your idea of a great party?

At home, my wife Wan Ling’s cooking, good wine and good friends, that does not go beyond midnight.

Describe your daughters.

Outspoken, free-spirited, animal lovers. That’s why we’ve always had dogs and cats in the house.

What have they taught you?

Parenting is harder than brain surgery in every conceivable aspect.

A superpower you desire?

As Hippocrates said: To cure sometimes, to treat often but to comfort always. In our busy world, to be able to bring comfort is what I would want to do.
