About me

I am a Geologist currently living in London with my girlfriend Jessica.

I have recently undergone heart surgery at King's hospital in Camberwell. Whilst I have known for over 15 years that I would be having this surgery, the experience has given me a new perspective on life, although I'm unsure how this will affect what I do on the Plinth!

I am very excited to be able to take part in The One & Other project. I have yet to decide what to with my time on the plinth but watch this space!

    You were brilliant. Fun to watch and very cute. Know a US girl interested if you and Jess don't work out. What? Everyone was thinking it, I'm just the one who said it. Ha ha.

    Hope you're doing well, wish you would have spoken more while on the plinth. Got a website, or Facebook or Twitter? Anything? Best wishes to you and Jess. ;)

    Hi, just tuned in. You've got some competition with all that going on in the background. Have a great time, I had a really peaceful hour on the plinth at 4am last week, but you've got quite a few distractions! Wish you well with your recovery.

    Just watching you now, Marcus, it's not fair that they have other things going on so close to you. It must be so difficult to compete for attention when the other crowd are blasting you out. Well done in your endeavour to entertain and be heard.

    Jessica's mom has passed this website around to many people. All of us will be watching. Hope that doesn't make you a little nervous. Good luck!

    The recovery is going well and it has given me an idea of what i can and can't do on the Plinth. As the World Free Running championships are on, I think I'll just enjoy the view from the unique viewpoint.

    The U.S. is watching you-perhaps a picnic? Just make sure it is something exciting! Will it involve sausages?

    I'm wondering how your ideas are developing. Fingers crossed for a nice afternoon: 5pm Saturday right? So is it going to be balloon poodles or what have you got up your sleeve?? We'll be watching you online so don't pick your nose...
