- Have your looks changed much since you were a child?
Obviously, but not dramatically. You can still tell it’s me in old photographs, but my eyes changed from blue to brown and my eyebrows are less bushy – tweezers saved my life, people! - Does your family have a game they always pull out at get togethers?
We always get the bumper quiz books out, or Trivial Pursuit. We’re not a family for Charades or Pictionary – we’re all about education
- What things did you like about summer as a child?
Being able to play out with my friends until late, and getting into my paddling pool in the garden. Thankfully my birthday is on July 6th so I always used to enjoy my parties in the garden with bouncy castles, and barbecues! - And what things do you like about summer now?
The light nights, the smiles on people’s faces, and the music – why does music get better in the summer? Everything just seems much more light hearted and relaxed. Unless it involves moving house, but I’ve banned myself from thinking about it. - What 5 songs get you in the mood to party?
Hot Hot Hot (i.e. olé, olé, olé, olé!), Sex on the Beach, anything by Cher (don’t snigger!), anything by Michael Jackson, and YMCA. - What time do you normally get to bed?
It differs depending on if I’m working the next day – if I’m not then I hit the pit between 1am and 2am. If I’m working it’s usually 12am and 1am. I’m a complete night owl. - What was your last dream about?
I don’t normally dream but last night I did – it was bizarre. I don’t know what I was doing but I was in a huge hotel, and I was looking for an old man on the top floor who could help me with something. My nanna found me, and told me I wasn’t allowed to find him so I went downstairs to the bar. All of my friend were there, and as we were leaving a very tall man came and started chatting us up. He looked like John Travolta only with more muscles, and younger. He wouldn’t leave us alone, and I asked him which one of us he wanted and he said, “You.” and then I woke up. What does this mean?! - Is confidence important in life?
In the right places, yes. For your job it’s very important – you need to have confidence in your abilities, and also in your colleagues. When I had my final appraisal for my placement this week, my boss praised my confidence so I suppose it’s a good thing. In other situations you need to be careful – I’m confident anyway, but I know when and where to tone it down. - “The bigger the better” – how true is this?
Well, it depends who or what you’re talking about. I’ll leave it there. - What picture is in the first photo frame you can see?
Me and my lovely friend, Sarah. She gave me the photo on my birthday last year, and I love it :
In this week’s edition of man-o-meter, we shall be laughing at discussing the things men say. In public. Surrounded by actual people. And yet they still come out with these gems.
“What was Hitler’s surname?”
I’m going to give you 5 minutes to think about it, and listen to the cogs grinding together in your brain. If you’ve still not got it I’ll give you another 5 minutes. And if you finally work it out, I’ll give you another 5 minutes to ponder your substantial lack of brain cells.
“Boobs are the best bit of fat ever.”
And that is the most warped compliment ever, but thank you. Thank you ever so.
“You almost ran over that cat puppy thing!”
I think you’ll find the word that you’re searching for is kitten but I may be wrong. You human monkey thing.
“What would roll down a hill faster, an orange or an apple?”
I don’t know – why don’t you go and find out? Why not see how fast you roll down a hill. And make it a steep one.
“Can you get raw olives, or are they just grapes?”
I’m just going to nod sweetly and let you get on with it, because I just can’t work out how you’ve evolved into a human being.
