1. If you had a super power what would it be? N/A
2. Who would you want with you if you were stranded on a deserted island? I’d be happy that I was on a deserted island in the first place.. As long as it was hot and sunny.. So sun would be the first requirement. Then I would need Coffee- preferably a Starbucks. My kids they are hilliarious and keep me sane, and are great company, Il cheat and say my ifone… As it has everything I need then I can factime anyone else. I’d then need some gloves and pads to use up my pent up energy. Is that too much?
3. What DVD could you watch over and over? I’ve watched every episode of friends again and again, now my daughter watches the DVDs too. They are classics. But movies would have to pretty woman.. Girly I know and the shawshank redemption.
4. If you won $1,000,000, what’s the first thing you’d buy? I would go on holiday to plan what I was spending it on… But that’s only because I love to travel. I’ve been lucky enough to see a lot of the world in my sport but dream holidays to rest are always top of the agenda. It would then be to pay off mortgage and open my own fighting academy.. My one good deed would do go and house a homeless person. Not sure there would be much left after all that.
5. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? I love London it’s home and always great to come back to but I also love the states. Florida has my heart.
6. What’s the last thing you ate? A random concoction that my boyfriend made me, whole meal pitta with kale salad, avocado and potatoes! It was actually really lovely. I love food except fish, don’t touch the stuff. Would love to but can’t do it. People pee in the sea!
7. At which store would you like to max-out a credit card? I’m loving a bit of all saints at the min. Probably showing my age. I could easily make a dent in a boots store though. I always manage to spend something in there perfume, vitamins… Just stuff.
8. Who’s your fave sports team? English- football it has to be Chelsea and I have a soft spot for Newcastle United as my nan was a Geordie. I’m a footy fan not Rugby which is rather strange as most judokas end up playing rugby. I love watching sports events, the Olympics and this year we have the commonwealth in Scotland. I know most of the judo team old and new and am pleased to see some older faces making a great come back. Good luck team England, Scotland and Wales.
9. If you were a crayon, what color would you be? Teal, it’s unusual and everyone needs a bit of teal in there life.
10. What’s your fave song/artist right now? Bruno Mars, gets it right every time. The words in his songs really hit home. But I like most things. To get me in the mood for training it’s old skool garage and anything on the radio channel “Kiss”, I’ll often be singing along and dancing in my car. Bit Awkward at the traffic lights when others are watching.
11. What restaurant would you choose for date night? Oh wow this is not classy at all. There is an all you can eat buffet chain in America called Golden Corral. I love the breakfast in that place – so I suppose that’s more like the day after date night. I love Cypriot food thanks to my best friend and love a nice meze. Job done.
12. What’s the farthest you’ve been from home? Japan, for three weeks it felt so far away. The culture is so different and you really do fell like you are somewhere different. I went with the GB judo team, it was an amazing experience and I loved it. It was hard work, it out what training I was doing into perspective and made me feel like a novice. We did ten five minute practices and that was just the start!
13. If you could meet anyone, living or dead, who would you choose? Ok this is a strange one… Rocky Bilbao, I know his not a real person but he inspired so many people to have heart and fight. Sylvester Stallone in making these films also has a great story and also and inspiration. A bit of an unsung hero.
