Interview
1) What's your best Christmas memory?
I tell you what, this isn’t the best start to this Christmas themed Q&A but I find it so difficult to think of one specific Christmas memory because I’ve always had very low key Christmases. Ever since I was little, we would do the usual; presents, Christmas dinner, my grand parents would come round but that’s really it. Although it was slightly after Christmas, I’d have to say my best memory of that specific time of the year would be when I spent it in Disneyland for New Years. All the Christmas decorations were still up and they had an almighty firework display - it was magical.
2) What are your 3 favourite Christmas reads?
I loved With Love at Christmas by Carole Matthews. A truly enjoyable and fun read! I also loved The First Christmas Without You by Michelle Betham. I also loved Carole Matthews short story, Sunshine With a Chance of Snow, although it’s very emotional! Don’t you just love Christmas covers?!
3) If you could choose one person, dead or alive, to celebrate a one time special Christmas with,
who would you choose and why?
I’d have my nan back for another Christmas. We always had a routine with my mum’s parents; we would go and pick them up around lunchtime, bring them back to mine then my dad and my granddad would go out for a few hours whilst me, my mum and my nan would stay at home and watch TV. Then we’d all eat dinner when they got back. That all changed when my nan died and although it’s been a long time, Christmas Day is always the time when I think about my nan and how she should be here at home with us.
4) What are your thoughts about Santa?
I swear, when I was like 7, I looked out the front door window of my old house on Christmas Eve night and saw a cloud that looked EXACTLY like Santa’s sleigh! I always believed in Santa when I was little because my parents always encouraged the idea by leaving out mince pies and carrots (and then eating them whilst I was asleep) and leaving a sack with presents in. It was really nice to have that though - this magic that I couldn’t quite explain.
5) What are your best and worst Christmas gifts and why?
Oh my, I just don’t know! I tend to be quite appreciative of presents - whatever they are so no present I’ve got I’ve thought, “Well, this is rubbish!” I make use of whatever I receive! My best Christmas present/s would have to be my laptop and camera because it’s what I do all my blogging on!
6) Your favourite Christmas song?
None. Sorry, I hate Christmas songs!
7) Your favourite Christmas movie?
Oh okay but I do love Christmas films! The Nightmare Before Christmas, It’s a Wonderful Life, The Muppet Christmas Carol, Love Actually, The Snowman, Four Christmases!
8) Top 3 books that you're giving as Christmas presents?
Ooh, I do love giving books as Christmas presents. This year, I’d definitely give Is It Just Me? by Miranda Hart as a gift. I’ve recently read and reviewed it and it was SO funny!
9) Most favourite and least favourite part of Christmas?
Most favourite… Buying gifts for other people. I absolutely love it and I love spending ages finding the perfect gift for everyone. Least favourite, oh God the SONGS!
10) I must ask, sorry - the best Christmas food is...?
Pigs in blankets… Obviously!
