good lose loves
My husband is experimental, loves to cook, and is really good at it. If I do the cooking, I lose my appetite. Why is that?
believe best considered height kids people school teased
As a teenager, I was teased at school about my height and long legs, but now they are my best assets. Kids can be mean. When I was at school, I considered myself ugly, but that was when I was silly enough to believe that what other people thought mattered. Now I think I am pretty. I'm not beautiful. There is a difference.
adult bruise great kicked stomach
Arnica is great. I got kicked in the stomach by a horse once, and some adult slapped arnica all over it, and I had no bruise at all to show for my pain.
cover girls insecure models scared
Yes, I was on the cover of 'Vogue,' but girls on the cover of 'Vogue' are the most scared of rejection. Models are the most insecure of them all. Actually, actors and actresses are, and then musicians, and then models!
cart fallen falling neck nurses saying spent
I spent a day in a neck brace on a hospital trolley after falling from a horse and cart in Ireland. All the nurses thought I was a traveler, which made me laugh. Who else comes into a hospital saying they've fallen off a horse and cart?
careful high money rather saving since spend
Since having kids, I am more careful about saving rather than splurging. I used to spend all my money on trainers and high heels that I couldn't walk in.
both people physically time total
People who read on holiday always have a better time because it's total escapism, both physically and mentally.
country frightened wildlife wonderful
I used to be frightened of the countryside after dark. Now I enjoy it. There is something wonderful about those strange country and wildlife noises.
definitely men
Men are definitely getting more avant-garde, experimenting with colours, patterns and fabrics.
anyone obsessed people work
In my twenties, I was obsessed with what other people thought of me. In my thirties, it's about my children, my husband, my work. In my forties, it's going to be about me, and I shan't care what anyone else thinks. I can't wait!
build lips thank
I have my father to thank for my build and height, and my mother to thank for my lips and eyes.
dreamt finally honeymoon lake marry nepal
I always dreamt that I would marry in the Piazza Del Campo in Siena and go on my honeymoon down the Amazon, up the Nile, on a gallop through the pyramids, to Nepal and Kerala, on a safari and finally to Lake Titicaca in Peru.
appalling gets money paying personnel raised wasted
It's appalling how much money raised at some charity events gets wasted on paying personnel and admin staff.
I want to do something to help people.
