Describe your perfect day if time, money or travel was not an issue?

I would wake up on a yacht in the Caribbean, eat a quick breakfast (nothing too fancy as I'm not a huge breakfast fan) before heading over to Disneyland to hang out with Mickey Mouse and the Crew. I'd then whizz over to Australia for a fishy lunch on a beach followed by snorkelling around the Great Barrier Reef in the afternoon. What other way to finish off a perfect day then eating steak in Texas and a spot of star gazing……

2
     Name three people you would invite round to dinner? 

David Attenborough – Because he is a legend
Ant Middleton – No reason needed
Michael McIntyre – Favourite Comedian

3
You are quite the adventurous type – what’s the most exciting/unusual thing you’ve done in the past 12 months

As I am coming to the end of my 30th year, I am having a year of treats and adventures which have so far included:
Zoo Keeper experiences at both Longleat Safari Park & Colchester Zoo (I really like animals)
Formula 1, Grand Prix at Silverstone
NFL Game at Wembley (Jaguars vs Eagles) 
Tank driving at 40mph
Adventure Holiday to Iceland (with my Mum!) The best bit was Glacier Hiking and Ice Caving

If you weren’t Rockley’s Poole Park Manager, what would you be doing?

When I was a child I always wanted to be a vet, but after I watched my first dog have a minor operation I passed out, so being a vet was no longer an option. Now when I think about it, I would have loved to have been a Zoologist.

5
Word has it that you are an exceptional hockey player(!). Which hockey match in history would you like to have played in?
 
Obviously I have to aim high here! Playing for Team GB in the Gold medal match at the Rio 2016 Olympics against the Netherlands.
And FYI, I am the top goal scorer in Hampshire!!

6
You like to shop! What’s the most favourite item you have bought or been given in the last six months?

Easy, my new car. I LOVE it! 

7
Apparently you like to karaoke! What song would get you up singing?

I don’t think everyone else loves my karaoke, but you can’t beat a good power ballard.
