The thing I can't resist is a pork pie. That's my idea of a lovely treat.

In our house, some of our favourite recipes just happen to be vegetarian, but I still enjoy meat and I believe very much in meat.

I cannot for the life of me understand what the Minister Of Transport does every day. He goes to the office at 9am and leaves at 5pm and the traffic in London is still horrendous.

I sometimes think the chef end of cooking is not the real end of cooking. Cooking is all about homes and gardens, it doesn't happen in restaurants

The real love for somebody comes from getting to know them very well.

If I was a Mayor, I would sort the traffic out and that includes public transport. The traffic jams really get on my nerves.
