A flat in London - I'm fed up of living in the North West of England with its rubbish public transport system and towns that shut up shop at 5 pm.

Same question.

Extensive medical check-up and fix them all.
And/or buy my own house right after.


Same question.

The first thing would probably be a good espresso machine, followed by bigger things.

Do you like blueberries?

Yes. I like them with Greek yoghurt.

If you could live in any era which would it be and why?

I would live one million years from now, just to see the advances made (hopefully).

Same Q

I'd be quite happy to go back to the 1960s, serieusement. I'd also have been interested to take a look around Edwardian Britain.

Have you ever driven an electric car?

No, but I was thinking about getting a hybrid car in the near future.

Same question

No, I'm not really keen on any dried fruit to be honest.

If you could live anyone else's life, who's would it be?

Same question.

I worked in a mill that used to spin and dye yarn. I was a machine operator and it involved me running up and down a machine (maybe 30 yards in length) all day long. I used to have to watch for the yarn to snap, tie it back on and put new yarn on when one lot had finished spinning. I loved it. I was literally running all day long. It kept me busy. The place was so noisy that no one could really speak to each other. And at break times everyone was just so happy to sit down for a bit that there was no negativity. I was just a kid then though and I don't think there are many places like that anymore. I don't even think health and safety rules existed then either.

Same q
