Love this thread. Such a simple yet clever idea. Really enjoying reading everyone's facts. It's a fascinating insight. So I'm Martin, here are mine.
1. I was diagnosed as autistic last year, aged 51.
2. My big obsession has always been sport, with a particular focus on the history of sport. I love football, F1, cycling, NFL, basketball, baseball, ice hockey, with wrestling as a guilty pleasure.
3. My great great great grandfather invented the safety match.
4. I love animals, especially dogs, and especially my 9 month old red fox labrador.
5. I've recently started volunteering as a motorsport marshal - one of those people who stand there all day in orange and wave flags for various reasons, especially safety. Definitely a suitable hobby for an autistic sports fan.
