What’s your perfect breakfast?

I love breakfast, so I’ll go for tofu scramble and mushrooms on a muffin with veggie sausages or black pudding, a bowl of overnight oats, pastries, coffee and a nice healthy fruit and ginger smoothie. Just a light one.

Favourite sandwich filling?

I’m quite partial to a vegan ‘fish’ finger sarnie, with ketchup, mayo, watercress and a dash of hot sauce.

Favourite film, TV programme, book?

Film: This is Spinal Tap;
TV programme: Mad Men;
Book: Dune by Frank Herbert.

Favourite superhero?

I’m not sure if he’s a superhero in the traditional sense, but Geralt of Rivia from the Witcher book and TV series.

Marmite — love it or hate it?

LOOOVE! Especially with peanut butter on toast.

Cats or Dogs?

Cats, but I love dogs, too!

What did you want to be when you grew up?

A musician. I wanted to play drums when I was ten, but decided to play guitar instead. (Much to my parents’ relief, I imagine.) I went on study Audio & Music Technology at Uni and play in a few bands.

I’m fascinated by the process of writing and producing music, and still dabble when I can.

What would be your dream holiday?

I’d love to tour Japan from end-to-end, from Hokkaido to the Okinawa islands, taking in the cities and countryside, modern and traditional cultures, and as much food and cycling as possible.
