Our Bloke – Alex Rowston

10 October, 2018 By Canowindra Phoenix Editor

Alex Rowston

How long have you lived in or around Canowindra and what do you like about living here?
I was born and bred in Cowra. It’s a great place to call home, friendly people, good location.

Where do you work and what do you enjoy most about work?
I work at Cowra Hire. I enjoy getting out and about delivering equipment to our job sites across the Central West region.

What do you do to unwind after work or on the weekends?
I enjoy spending time outside in the veggie garden and playing with our 2 dogs. I also enjoy mountain bike riding and heading to the dam fishing and camping.

What are you good at?
Driving Roie up the wall.

What is your pet hate?
I hate a dirty household!

If you could have a superpower what would it be and why?
Walk on water, so I could barefoot easily.

Tell us about your best holiday ever.
I went to the South Island of New Zealand on a Contiki tour in January 2015 and went bungee jumping, jet boating, white water rafting, all the good stuff. Will take Roie with me next time, see if she will bungee!

What makes your day?
A walk with the dogs and a great coffee.
