PROFILE
When I ’ m not working , I like to spend my time … with the family . Weekends are very precious as it means I can devote my time to my children . They are young and entertaining , and certainly keep me on toes .
My guilty pleasures are … Monday to Friday , I get up 4.30-5am , train every morning and fast until lunch time , which I love doing . On a weekend , I binge out on junk food , using the kids as an excuse . I also like building Lego with my eight-year-old son .
The best holiday I ever had was … my honeymoon . We travelled around the globe , enjoying the serenity of the Maldives to the frenetic and “ always on ” aspect of Hong Kong . The Barrier Reef was a wonderful experience as we managed to swim in coral and see some of the ocean ’ s beauty .
Not many people know this about me but … I trained as a TV presenter and featured on an in-house cable TV channel , YITV .
In retirement , I ’ ll spend my time … I don ’ t think I could ever retire . My ambition is to not have to worry about the bills and give away all my time to help other people .
