Balance sheets bore me. I suspect if figures had excited me I would have gone into the city and now be a lot wealthier.

My favourite designers are Alexander McQueen, YSL, Eskandar, Donna Karan and Lanvin.

Every mother and daughter should make time for a trip together. It's good for the soul.

Every couple needs glue to stay together. Like all marriages, I suspect, if you're busy you don't see it coming until you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube. It's a bit like going broke. It happens slowly and then very quickly.

I adore clothes - they're my weakest link! My mother was the same, and she taught me always to look polished.

I have been asked to lend people money - I now only ever give whatever amount is comfortable without thinking it will come back, otherwise when you see that person wearing a new coat or going on holiday you think but yes, where is my money?

I am dating, but it is hard to find someone quick enough and funny enough. I am quite demanding.
