OK - This is for you S - and you can answer anonymously don't worry;)

What's your favourite Place in the world?

Deep, dark and magical: Doubtful Sound, South Island, New Zealand: the most remote and silent place I’ve visited. Some areas of the fjord are still unmapped with lots of undiscovered plants and wildlife. Heaven – if it wasn’t for the blasted sand-flies.


Your favourite Book(s)?
The Time-traveller’s wife by Audrey Niffennegger (if you haven’t read it yet you better had do quickly – it’s about to be released as a film).


Anything by Ian McKewan – including Atonement (as always the film didn’t get anywhere near).....
& Khaled Hosseini’s Thousand Splendid Suns


Your favourite way to kill time...?
Facebook & searching Rightmove.co.uk for that ultimate home....


Most important piece of advice you’d want to pass on...
Never take anything in life for granted.

Biggest regret?
Not pestering my Dad enough to let me learn the piano.

Your least favourite Film (as we’ve done our favourite already) Titanic

If you had all the time and money in the world, where would you go and what would you do? Buy a big shack on a deserted beach on a Greek Island or buy a Sunseeker Boat and sail out to an exotic Caribbean island and spend a year or so writing a book.


Proudest moment in your life (so far)?
Watching my Mum pass her driving test aged 50-something. Divorce behind her and relishing her new independence!

Most scary moment in your life so far:
Not knowing whether J’s brother would live or die after his motorbike accident nearly 20 years ago (he survived, but is in a wheelchair).

Thing(s) that you find most annoying?
Anything celebrity-related, especially people obsessed by Big Brother or Hello magazines...sad, sad, sad

Material object you couldn’t live without:
My iPod – especially my Meditation Oasis podcasts!

Non-material object you couldn't live without?
my hearing - I couldn't survive without my music:)

Look forward to reading yours...
