Talking of Quizzes we turned the tables on Sharon and asked her a series of Staff Team Member Questions:

If I wasn’t working for Saint FM?        I would still be at sea…probably on a Korean fishing ship by now, and blending in well!!!!

My celebrity crush is         None really – everything is made to look good in print, although Channing Tatum seems to put some extra life into the papyrus for me!! 

The song that best describes me is:     Metallica’s ‘Whiskey In The Jar’ on a Friday night, and Jim Reeves’ ‘I Won’t Forget You’ on a Sunday morning……potluck during the week!

I think I have a fear what is it?        Not letting on…. so that it can’t be used against me!

If I could have dinner what would it be?     Prawn Bhuna (Hot!!) & Jeera Rice + Garlic Naan, with those lovely little fresh condiments….

My favourite series is             (was!, when I had loads of time)  Pretty Little Liars & Once Upon A Time

The song that I can listen to on repeat and never get tired of is…  None!….seldom seen or heard is wonderful so I take my rounds with favourite songs.

I hate it when…   I have to do all those house-wifely chores..….I believe in sweeping the room with a glance!

My favourite place to eat or drink on St Helena… ‘Terbrensha’ (Mom’s place!)

My favourite place to think for the weekends on St Helena is…  Peak Dale Farm…my old hometown of ‘many fruit trees, gardens and animals’ fame, but more of family, home and loving memories.
