Random follow #157 - @andydower

Tweeters in New Zealand apparently flock together like birds of a feather.  Well maybe not quite that closely but it seems like there are pockets of twitter users scattered all over the place.  And some towns in New Zealand have more than their fair share.  The Taranaki region is the perfect example of this.

There are SO many great twitter peeps from the 'Naki and @andydower is another one!  Andy is a great example of a random kiwi tweeter.  With almost 1,000 tweets under his belt and 68 followers he's not making big waves in social media.  But that doesn't matter.  Because what he does do is tweet some pretty cool stuff.  Especially about sport and New Plymouth.


Andy is a dad who has 3 boys whom he is raising with love.  And its really impressive that in his twitter bio he outs it out there.  Plus he loves a few other things - like coffee, sport and cooking.  I am hoping that there is one very lucky person out there who gets to reap the rewards of these interests.

He doesn't give too much away about who he is or what is happening in his every day life but occasionally he opens the door just a smidgen to let you in catch a glimpse of his life.  Such as -

"Parking for the test match has reached our house already People must be getting excited early. 6 degrees and dropping. Huddle together peeps".  It doesn't take a Sherlock Holmes to figure out he means New Plymouth.

"Got to go to bed, bugger!"  He stays up past his bedtime?

"Rugby, cricket and F1 to watch tonight and the kids have lost the Sky remote AGAIN, AAAAUUUUURRRGHH!"  Boys, sports and television can be trouble!

"Danger Mouse #ClassicTV"  The man has taste!

@andydower is a twitter account under construction.  Now that he's almost got the first thousand tweets out of the way he's practically a local.  So I encourage you to call over to his place and say hi.  If you like what you see then why not give him a follow?  He's a great guy.  

Over and out.
