David Beckham won't join twitter because he doesn't have the time to give the social networking website his full attention.

The 37-year-old soccer star, whose wife Victoria is a keen user of the micro-blogging website, doesn't think he is ready to set up his own account yet because he can't give it his full attention.

Asked in a twitter chat via the Adidas UK account if he would set up his own page, he replied: "Will have to wait and see, I like to do things properly so will only do it when I can commit to it."

While David, who has four children, Brooklyn, 13, Romeo, nine, Cruz, seven, and 12-month-old Harper, doesn't have enough time to devote to twitter, he loves watching his favourite comedy shows on TV.

He explained: "I used to love Only Fools 'n' Horses, I love the US version of The Office now."

David is known for his love of tattoos and has inkings all over his body, but says the ones he got in tribute to his loved ones are his favourite.

Asked which tattoos he likes best, he said: "The ones about my family, they mean the most to me."

And the LA Galaxy player also admitted despite experimenting with several different hair styles throughout his career, he is very happy with his current look.

Responding to a question about his best hair style, he said: "The one I have right now but I've always liked skin heads, they are easy."
