This is one tough question. There are so many song lyrics that have made a difference in my life for one reason or another. Not dodging your question sir but I’m not sure I can answer this one.

What’s the first thing you would do if you hit the big lottery payday?

I completely understand and feel the same. The Mobb Deep quote and effect sprang to mind simply because I mentioned them. I could mention soooooo many more but will spare you.

I'd use my new found wealth to retain a KC (King's Counsel, a senior lawyer) services as I'm sure I would needs a skilled trial lawyer to plead my case in Crown Court... The Hoi polloi might think that I'm a dick now (because they don't know I'm an delight), give me MONEYYYYYYYY and the hoi polloi will think I'm an uber dick as I know I'd sin up so hard that Satan would fear for my wellbeing. Hence the KC. All that plus a Bentley GT.

If you began to see that someone you knew was in the throes of an addiction, be it drink drugs gambling prescription meds.... and all the countless others. What would do, what would you think of them?

I wouldn’t think any less of them because we all struggle with something. I’d offer my help and my friendship and if they didn’t want it so be it.


Do you have a favorite word or phrase that seems to pop up in your life over and over again?

DFF what are you doing to me... I've had to put the can down and put on my thinking cap, again to tackle a hard/excellent question. Here goes...

I don't read books, but I like to discover new words and saying et cetera. I find them where I can and, no surprise, in lyrics. TV shows, Magazines, other people and elsewhere. I watch Countdown because of Suzy Dent. I have numerous, words and phrases that I dredge up from somewhere when the moment presents itself...

I love how this word duo sounds when I say it, but not used very often just because... Phenotypic plasticity. Stumbled across that watching a documentary about a cave.
Wireless... just like it's connotations from yesteryear, now usurped by "wifi".
Mash-up... no need to explain I'm sure
Fiend... First heard this in 1988 in way that struck me. Eric B and Rakim's track Microphone Fiend. The word can carry negative weight, alluding addiction. I use it in that sense and I also use it in a more watered down sense to hint that someone likes a certain proclivity... eg, Velma from Scooby Doo likes the ladies therefore she's a "pie fiend" See what I'm saying?

Taken from Biggie Smalls.. "things done changed". Great phrase.
"Don't turn your back on a brother like me, because I'm one broke motherf***er in need". I use this phrase as a way to suggest, If you can help the less fortunate.
"My name is Dita, I'll be your mistress for tonight". Madonna saying that people wear many guises. I use it, and it's lost on the person that needs to understand.
"You must be slinging crack rock" Biggie again. I use this to say "well done on your achievements.

I'll spare you the rest.

If someone in your local was reported miss, and considered a "at high risk" would you join a search party to help the police?

Yes, and actually I did this once a few years back. A neighborhood child went missing for a few hours but we found him safe.


Did you ever play a harmless practical joke on someone that you were so proud of you still brag about it at their expense?

DFF I suggest you get comfortable... I'm banging this meandering epic out on my laptop so you know.

Back in 1998 a dear chum of mine invited his old school friend to pitch up at his crib, pay a token rent while he settles in civvy street after about 7 years in the army.
The guy, Alan pitched up and was nice enough to begin with, but I quickly saw that the man talked a good game, but played a weak game. He believed I was some type of fool... (my IQ is genius level, although sometimes...) He was just a twit.

Well back then popular media personality Chris Evens with his vast wealth started dating rising star, the 20something attractive Billie Piper. The press fixated on the age gap as he was much older and how he was wooing Billie with lavish gifts, I recall a Ferrari was one such gift. They were on TV and the printed press to the point of saturation. (stay with me... getting there soon)

Partying up regular at the house he was living at with out paying his rent, I had a nefarious idea.... the next time Billie Piper appeared on the TV, in a newspaper, magazine or conversation I looked at Alan and said "did you know Billie Piper has one eye?" I kept on saying that time and time again, for months. Every photo showed I was talking nonsense. C'mon it was obvious!

Fast forward a few months and hanging out at the house with the TV on, Billie and Chris were on the screen. Alan then turned to a guy that was there and said to him "It's a shame Billie Piper only has one eye" Alan offered that gem in a matter of fact manner. I laughed so hard so so hard how i didn't piss myself is a miracle.

When he asked what was so funny, I said that he'd never understand... with Billie Piper and her TWO eyes still on the TV. Truly I excelled here.


If you witnessed someone you knew up to no good, and knowing that if word got about it would cause pain and upset, what would you do?

1999 springs to mind. Hard to put into words but.. young with no real responsibility and money on my hip. Partying with friends and looking forward to the new millennium. I had plenty of fun that year.

Did you look forward to welcoming the new millennium?

I definitely did, considering it was something I’ll never see again in my lifetime. It was such a special feeling.


Do you remember how old you were when you got the news that Santa wasn’t real?

Good question! Fallon #2 from Dynasty. Everyone hates her and blames her for the show never being the same but I simply adored her as a teenager and she was actually the main reason I watched the show. I feel a lot of the criticism is unfair also.


If you could change the ending of one movie you’ve seen which would it be?
