After a few days of vegetable curry I crave my husband's home-made pizza.
I'm slightly obsessed with Moomins. They were my specialist subject on BBC's 'Celebrity Mastermind' a few years ago!
I was extremely lucky as I was in one of the last generations of British students who went to university and had my fees paid, and I had a grant as well. I also earned money from my waitressing and designing and selling my own range of dinosaur cards.
No student ever attains very eminent success by simply doing what is required of him: it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above the required, that determines the greatness of ultimate distinction.
I found that through my life, living in the city of Toronto, I look above the Pizza Pizza sign, and I look above the other signs and window dressing, and I see evidence of a city that no longer exists in the keystones and the decorations that line the tops of buildings. That presence of the old city has always moved me.
I really don't care how I pitch when it's above 74 degrees below the Mason-Dixon Line and the wind is coming out of the northeast at more than 10 miles an hour. Just give me wins and losses.
Military rule in Indonesia formally ended in 1998, but the army remains above the law.
