Favourite things: Dogs. I’m responsible for two on this site.
Also love food. I have a strange habit of creeping round and stealing the production manager’s chocolate bars when he’s not looking and then claiming absolutely no knowledge! Other things I enjoy are walking, reading and general puzzles and brainteasers.

Favourite places: Kenya. I’ve spent time on safari and enjoy the amazing scenery and majesty of the landscape and animals. I also spent time in Egypt when I was growing up and can still even vaguely remember the native Arabic. As far as this country is concerned I love Devon and Cornwall and am quite partial to the odd bit of fudge and clotted cream teas.
