Twenty Questions - May 2008

1) Why would people in Benwick know you?

I am the grand daughter of the Chair of the village hall committee [Pat Tickner], who is also a member of the Parish Plan and the Roddon’s Board and some other societies. I know a lot of people from around the village either because of school or just from seeing people from around the village.

2) What is your earliest memory of Benwick?

I think that the earliest memory I have is when the village use to hold fireworks down in the park, and then everyone would go to the pub. Them nights were great.

3) Marmite: Love it or Hate it?

I hate it! I think it tastes vile! Ewww...

5) What do you like to do in your spare time?

In my spare time I train with my Martial Arts (whether I am competing, training or maybe even grading).

6) What do you think would most improve Benwick?

I think that the thing that would most improve Benwick at the moment would be for everyone in the village to get together more often and for the people to work as one.

I think that the best thing about Benwick is the scenery. In some places of the village the views are amazing.

10) What is the first thing you would buy if you won the lottery?

11) Favourite place in Benwick?

My favourite place in Benwick would have to be the Riverside. The views are stunning.

12) Where is the worst place you have lived?

To be honest I don’t know. I have lived for most of my life and I can’t remember where other places I have lived. We temporarily moved to Wimblington and I hated it because it was rather dirty.

13) If you had £500 to give to charity - who would you give it to and why?

I would probably give it to the Cancer Research charity because I know people, some not as personal as other, that have suffered and or died from this condition.

I don’t think that I could live without my friends and family. They have always been there for me and can always make me smile

No I don’t really. I don’t think that Benwick has major problems.

16) Tea or Coffee?

Coffee. But only as long as it if very weak. I like caffeine.

17) What made you move to Benwick?

The last thing that I bought was jewellery. I love jewellery so I like to buy lots of it.

19) List 5 things that annoy you?

Oh, I hate bullies. Mice. Rats. Being clever. And does my brother count?
