Home life

What is an ability you wish you had?  Teleport, I would go to a different country for dinner every night.

What’s currently on top of your bucket list?  A trip to Nashville to get amongst the bars with all the live country music and eat my body weight in brisket.

What’s the one talent people would be surprised to know about you?  I play touch rugby and have been fortunate enough to represent Scotland.

Your karaoke song of choice?  Sophie Ellis-Bextor – Murder on the dance floor. A classic that gets everyone involved!.

Brown or red sauce?  Not to be controversial but I would have both on a bacon/sausage sarnie, for anything else red always.

Go to comfort food?  Nachos with all the trimmings, spiced meat, gooey cheese, beans, pickled jalapenos, avocado chunks, salsa. I am salivating at the thought!

Best box set TV binge and why? It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, an easy watch and always tickles me.
