What's your favourite thing about summer?

I love all the great things you can do outside with the children – barbecues, picnics and camping!

Where would you go on your dream holiday?

I want to swim with turtles so probably the Maldives.

What's your favourite summer dish?

Roasted courgettes, red onions and aubergines with lots of olive oil on a bed of couscous.

Are you a whizz on the barbecue?

I always get distracted and burn the food! My favourite is barbecued halloumi!
