What is your favourite month of the year?
Mmm, tricky one. Let’s take a look.

• January – too cold, Christmas just over, back to work with a vengeance
• February – pointless
• March – rain, not quite Spring yet, still cold
• April – neither one thing nor the other
• May – not summer yet
• June – potentially warm but probably not, rain likely
• July – holidaymakers start arriving, add 15 minutes to evening commute
• August – holidaymakers everywhere, add 25 minutes to evening commute, can’t go anywhere because everywhere is full of holidaymakers
• September – rain
• October – rain, windy
• November – another pointless month
• December – has Christmas in it (yay), too cold, might snow or freeze so I’m constantly worried about driving

Conclusion – none of them.

Do you drink coffee at all?
Do I ever! Mmm, coffee.

What was one of your first moneymaking jobs (other than babysitting or newspaper delivery)?
I had a summer job for three months before going to university. I was working in the computer room at the county council. It was quite cool and allowed me to save up some pennies before leaving for my studies. Remember the old films with computers where you see flashing lights and big tapes in big machines whirring round? It was exactly like that! One of my jobs was to put the tapes in the machines.

List: If you play video/computer games list 5 games you like? 

• Witcher 3 (that’s what I’m playing at the moment)
• The Mass Effect series
• The Elder Scrolls series (Oblivion, Skyrim)
• The Last of Us (“like” may not be the right word – I’m terrified of this game, it’s too realistic)
• Gears of War
