First visit to Walt Disney World: 2004
I love Walt Disney World because: It’s a place for children and adults to escape into a fairy tale
Favourite Walt Disney World attraction: I love the parade at the end of the day and the fireworks because they are spectacular
Favourite Disney character: I love Chip and Dale because they are cheeky. The Little Mermaid is another of my favourites
Cast Member since: 1980
I joined Disney because: They recruited me
Favourite Walt Disney World attraction: Haunted Mansion
Favourite Disney character: Buzz Lightyear
Favourite Walt Disney World memory: Taking my family to Typhoon Lagoon after completing work on the project
Cast Member since: 1986. My first job was a bar man in the Rose & Crown pub in Epcot. I was one of 10 students chosen to represent the UK that year.
I joined Disney because: I was looking on the notice board at Napier University in Edinburgh to see if I had been chosen for the hockey team that weekend, only to see a picture of Mickey Mouse with a casting call. It was either that or a two-hour accounting class : )
Favourite Walt Disney World attraction: The classics, Jungle Cruise, Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion because they have Walt’s signature on them.
Favourite Disney character: Peter Pan, the boy who never grew up. My mother still asks me when am I going to grow up and get a real job.
Favourite Walt Disney World memory: Firstly meeting my wife, Beatriz, who was playing an Aztec goddess in the Mexican Pavilion at Epcot at the time. And also watching my daughter become an American Citizen on Main Street USA on 4 July 4 2007.
I joined Disney because: It’s just such a fantastic brand – and because my three-year-old daughter would never have spoken to me again if I hadn’t!
Favourite Walt Disney World attraction: Toy Story Mania, because it’s pure fun!
Favourite Disney character: A hard one, but Baloo I think because he’s got the attitude to life we all really wish we could have!
Favourite Walt Disney World memory: Watching the evening fireworks over the lake at Epcot from the terrace of the Rose & Crown pub, with a pint.
