I'd really like to get on a Greyhound bus and go backpacking across America.

I've got a great family and a beautiful house. I feel very lucky as far as my lifestyle is concerned. I'm not really interested in fame and all its trappings.

'Evil' is quite a blanket term. People aren't the demonic characters we would like them to be sometimes.

I'm no good at down-time. I panic slightly and then plan a project or set up a meeting about starting a project.

Liverpool will always be my home.

My house is very clean apart from a very small part of it that looks as if we've been burgled, which is my office.

Liverpool has always made me brave, choice-wise. It was never a city that criticised anyone for taking a chance.
