Where do you go for inspiration?
National Portrait Gallery- I love just dropping in for half an hour & soaking up all the colours ,textures and concepts. The portraits offer so much history and the modern galleries are just fun! If I get the chance to return home I find Newcastle particularly inspiring. Its architecture, its people, and of course there’s always St James Park!

Tennis & horse riding & watching football
