I'm just a working class man who's done well for himself.
So much of sport is that mental attitude.
I used to have to go to the board and hit three 180s before I'd allow myself to go to bed. Sometimes, I'd do it in five minutes but, on a bad night, it could take an hour.
With darts it's just one against one, it's blow for blow. The only thing I could compare it to is boxing. It's dead exciting. You're reacting to each other, the adrenaline's pumping. You don't feel calm at all. But it's all about being able to win when you're pumped up. People say you don't play the player; I play the player every time.
I used to body build six or seven days a week. I was really, really fit. I wasn't naturally talented but I was fanatical at it. That's the problem with me, I've got a one-track mind.
I love winning. It is a fantastic feeling.
When we were travelling in different countries I felt like I was jetlagged eight months of the year.
