Food: I am a great lover of food, especially traditional English dishes. However, Italian pasta dishes are my other favourite!!
Music: I like a mixture of music and believe music can be very powerful for soul. My taste in music is wide and varied, with no strong preferences.
TV: I enjoy watching television especially in the winter. I’m a keen soap fan watching Eastenders, Coronation Street, and Casualty. I also enjoy documentaries on crime and history.
Films: I am terrible at remembering film names!! However, I enjoy most films and my taste is very dependent on my mood.
Books: I don’t get much time to read unless on holiday, but when I do read I like autobiography’s and crime books.
