Mark my words, Michael Van Gerwen will knock Phil Taylor off his perch one day and be the best darts player on the planet.

I was born at the right time. I was a freak - the only young player when darts took off in the 1970s.

I'm not on Twitter or Facebook and don't even use email. I don't trust computers: one day they'll all break down, and everyone will be knackered.

I've got a nice little crafty deal with the people in Barbados; 10 days out there teaching the locals how to play darts for an hour a day. Get paid for that as well.

Ever since I've been 16, 15, that's all I've been doing: playing darts.

All this cuddling and kissing on stage these days, well it's all right in football when someone scores a goal, but not when you're playing darts.
