No, though I know two guys from my class at primary school have been fully fledged smackheads for years.

Now that's something I've never been asked before, but no.

Water. It's my favourite drink.

If I can't go for hair I'd say eyes or lips.

The purple amethyst pendent on white gold chain which Paul bought me for Christmas 2006

To Beanscene in the next hour or so

The red one I bought in the River Island sale recently

Red, or a deep pink

My Little Pony ones. I also had a Take That set as a young teenager.

Probably a badly sprained wrist sustained during a visit to Goole's (then) brand new hospital when I was about 8. My mum had gone for a tour around and had left me in the playroom where I fell off a giant ball. I was in so much pain the old hospital gave me an x-ray (as the new one just told me to stop crying) but it turned out not to be broken.

39. Do you love where you live?

I love this area of Edinburgh where even the neds are polite, but not so much the flat. It has too many holes where the cold air rushes in.

I don't measure my friends in decibels.

None

Rich, dark, soft chocolate truffles

None

Sleeping

50. What was the first thing you thought of when you woke up?

Oh good it's Sunday and I don't have to go to work.
