Meet Tim Barber

Hi, I’m Tim Barber

But you can call me Timmy, Timbo, TBarbs or TB

I was born and raised in United Kingdom

But I’m currently in Melbourne, Australia

You’ll find me eating tapas

And you’ll see me drinking beer

A sports moment I’ll never forget is England beating Australia at anything, especially the 2003 RWC Final and the 2005 Ashes

The sports venue you’ll have trouble getting me out of is the Sidney Myer Music Bowl. Outdoor venues are the best, but one in a natural amphitheater in the middle of the Melbourne botanical gardens with the city skyline as a backdrop; you can’t beat it!

I idolise Sir Bobby Robson. He was the most humble and genuine person I have met – a legend of sport and the perfect role model, 30 minutes I will never forget

On the weekend you’ll find me playing sport, watching sport and spending time with my family

I’m always happy to talk about literally everything!

Something you may not know about me is that my great-great-great grandfather was the first person to complete the swim unassisted across the English Channel
