1 Philomena I What do you eat to cheer yourself up when you’re feeling sad? P I love roast potatoes, baked potatoes. They’re warm, buttery, nice olive oil. They make me feel good. I Does it make you feel better? P Yeah, usually it does. I think they’re quite refreshing, warm. When you’re feeling down, I think they’re the perfect remedy. 2 Mark I How often do you eat out? M Well, my wife would probably like me to eat out a little bit less, but probably about 2–3 times a week. I What kind of places do you go to? M You know, it always kind of depends. I think people like to eat in 3 or 4 different restaurants in their town no matter what, and it’s usually one of those three or four, usually pizza, Mexican, or Asian. I Why do you like these kinds of restaurants? M I guess part of it is it’s the type of food that you can’t normally prepare at home, so it’s something a little bit different. Otherwise it’s just tasty. 3 Ross I Do you have brothers and sisters? R I have step brothers and sisters. Two stepsisters and one stepbrother. I Do you get on with them well? R Yes, we didn’t grow up together, but we’re now all adults and we get on really well. 4 Coleen I Have you ever won any money, for example in a lottery? C I won, many years ago, a thousand pounds, which was amazing. I What did you do with it? C We went on an unplanned long weekend break in the Malverns in England, which was absolutely gorgeous. 5 Richard I Have you ever taken part in a charity event? R I have, yes. I ran the London Marathon, I think about eight years ago now. For Cancer Research. I How much money did you raise? R About six and a half thousand pounds.
