Each week Bristol Business News gives a prominent member of the city’s business community the last word on its weekly e-bulletin.
This week, Kyle Hannan, founder and managing director of the Ecomedia Collective CIC, answers our 10 questions.
What was the LAST: 
Film you watched? Deadpool. A superhero film for adults which rises above the usual ‘cape, jape and escape’ multiplex norm. Proves you can look like hell and STILL get the girl.
Book you read? Parallel Worlds by theoretical physicist and futurist Michio Kaku. Or maybe it wasn’t… (See what I did there?)
Music you bought/downloaded? I don’t. In fact, I recently deliberately deleted all 10,000 songs I had on my system. Having everything at my fingertips had killed that sense of happy rediscovery you get when hearing a song you’d forgotten about. Now I download spoken word podcasts only.
Concert or play you went to? An awesome Billy Joel tribute maestro named Elio Pace.
Sporting event you attended? My own. A bracing run on Uphill beach in Weston-super-Mare.
Holiday you went on? A summer week in Ilfracombe with my marvellous wife.
Restaurant you ate in? A Korean place near Paddington station in London. Their winter hotpots are addictive, even for a vegetarian like me.
Thing that annoyed you? Slow broadband coupled with Windows Updates on a computer I’d not synced in two months. C..r..a..w..l..I..n..g…
Thing that made you laugh out loud? The latest episode of Betas watched via Google Chromecast on Amazon Prime. (There’s a lovely contradiction in there somewhere….)
Piece of good advice you were given? “It’s better to be productive than just busy”.
