I'm not gonna give the British Government the joy of keeping taxing me. They don't tax art. And all my cars are just a collection of art.

I like girls who like the countryside, put on walking boots and can bend with the wind a bit. If you're going to live with me, you need to be able to embrace the countryside and wet dogs.

The mid-life crisis is just those times when you're not so into the things you were when you were younger.

Your private life is your private life and you keep it to yourself. You get more respect that way.

Every now and again I need to get away from everything. I'm quite a hidey-hole kind of a guy.

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!
