If you had a festival what would it be called and what would happen?
A pagan fire festival. Held at night with lots of fireworks, bonfires, Arcadia sort of thing mixed with eating, drinking and music.

Green tea, fruit, fine wine, biscuits and cheeses

Have you ever ordered “off-menu”? If yes, what did you have?
I don't. I am not that demanding, but I often have to for my son who is a very fussy vegetarian that often ends up with chips.

Favourite year to be reincarnated?
2071

First single you ever bought?
First song that I remember hitting me was 'Ride a White Swan' by TRex but it was on my Stu Pot Party record! So not strictly a single. The first record I bought was the Grease album for 99p I was very disappointed when I got it home only to find it was the Pickwick version! First true single was Blondie - Heart of Glass.

What computer key are you?
Um the space bar?

What would your ideal superpower be and why? Would you use it for good or evil?
I would like to be invisible. Using it for my own and others advantage in order to gain knowledge. I hope that I would use it wisely and not get into the habit of spying on people. Well, maybe a bit of mischief now and then!
