WHO IS YOUR FAVOURITE HISTORICAL FIGURE?
Quite a common choice I think, but Martin Luther King never ceases to amaze me
WHERE IN THE WORLD WOULD YOU MOST LIKE TO VISIT
The Ancient City of Petra in Jordan. Ever since I saw it in an Indiana Jones movie, it just looks amazing. Hypocritically, I’d like to be tourist free though
IF YOU WEREN'T A TEACHER WHAT WOULD YOU BE?
Centre half for Manchester United in an ideal world. It is about the only thing I could prefer to my current job
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE BOOK?
Today, it is The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. It is the most perfectly written book I’ve ever read. Tomorrow it will be something else
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE FILM?
Ghostbusters, The Maltese Falcon or Soy Cuba (depending on my mood)
DO YOU HAVE ANY PETS?
Two kittens – do the garden worms they put on the kitchen floor count as well?!
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE SUBJECT AT SCHOOL?
History. Although I shockingly only got a C at GCSE!
WHAT PERIOD OF HISTORY WOULD YOU MOST LIKE TO HAVE BEEN BORN IN?
I think Ancient Greece – their ideas of society and civilization are so important now, yet they lived so differently. As long as I was not a slave
WHAT IS THE BEST THING YO HAVE EVER SEEN?
I think night swimming in Ha Long Bay near Hanoi in Vietnam with the most amazing starlit sky and luminous algae lighting up the water all around me might just beat Manchester United winning the European Cup in Barcelona in 1999. But I am very lucky to have seen either
DO YOU HAVE ANY HOBBIES?
I play 5-a-Side Football very badly once a week, listen to a lot of music and watch a lot of movies. I really enjoy cooking when I have the time. But I seem to spend most of my time doing DIY and gardening very badly indeed
