Q&A
If you could gain one quality or ability, what would it be?
Perfect pitch. I think it would make karaoke infinitely better. And I already quite like karaoke.
If you could only eat one meal/food for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Potatoes. Nutritious and versatile. Although we could apparently survive on seaweed in the event of a nuclear winter…it sounds less appetising to me!
What was the last book you read?
Troy, by Stephen Fry. I would highly recommend it.
