Hi Ruthy. Welcome to the Spotlight. Here are a few questions for you.The theme is (mostly) desert island, i.e. suppose you were stranded on one... and don't worry about the technology to support your choices, that will be taken care of...

1. What would be your five Desert Island CDs? They don't need to come from your own collection. Why would you choose these particular ones?

2. You might also want some reading material. What would be your five Desert Island books? Why?

3. What else would you like to have with you to occupy your time and your mind?

4. Food might be a challenge. If you could have only two or three foods and nothing else, what would you choose? Why?

5. If you could have one human companion, who would that be? Why?

This one is not part of the theme:

6. If you came into a large sum of money -- an unexpected inheritance, a winning, whatever, but "set-you-up-for-life" big -- what would be the first four things you would do?

1. What would be your five Desert Island CDs? They don't need to come from your own collection. Why would you choose these particular ones?

I think I would choose-
The latest Clubland cd to have some upbeat music, keep me motivated

The Carpenters-I love all their songs
R and B love songs album- I love this kind of music
Simply Red-Greatest Hits cd- because I love all their music
Lady GaGa-Fame monster-she's great

I have a very varied mind for music.


2. You might also want some reading material. What would be your five Desert Island books? Why?

Any book by Jenny Colgan, she is a fab and funny author
Kerry katonas Autobiography-would make a very interesting read

Katie Price-Latest autobiography-would make another very interesting read

Anna Sewell-Black Beauty-a timeless classic
I can't name any other, just any chick lit book I love them

3. What else would you like to have with you to occupy your time and your mind?
I think I would have to take my phone with me and then I could still go on the internet and on here


4. Food might be a challenge. If you could have only two or three foods and nothing else, what would you choose? Why?

Ceaser salad-I love, love, love it
Rump steak, cooked rare, salad and chips because I love it and its a balanced meal
Black forest gateau-Well I've got to have something sweet lol oh don't forget the cream with that

5. If you could have one human companion, who would that be? Why?

Oh my, this is a very hard one, I could not choose any of my family as that would not be fair. Ok Peter Andre, he would suit all my needs down to the ground


This one is not part of the theme:

6. If you came into a large sum of money -- an unexpected inheritance, a winning, whatever, but "set-you-up-for-life" big -- what would be the first four things you would do?

Buy a bigger house
Help less fortunate family members out
Go on holiday
Set up a well supported and hopefully successful business to keep us ok for life

Hi!


What is your favorite season of the year? and why?
What do you do to keep in shape?
When I went to Japan I experienced the "onsen" bath where you share a hot spring naked with strangers. Would you do it too? and why?
Do you have a collection? If so, how long have you been doing it?

So sorry Coolcat, its because there was 2, here you are hunni x

1.- Wich one is your favourite Genre of Movies?

I like all genres of movies, I think though my best has to be those based on true stories

2.- Do you collect DVD´s or VHS??,….How many do you have?

We never seem to get time to watch Dvd's, I only have 3, my favourite one is Rain Man, my children have about 30, all disney films.

3.- Wich one is your favourite Actor Male?

I love Steven Segal

4.- Wich one is your favourite Actor Female?

Angelina Jolie is fantastic, especially in Mr and Mrs Smith

5.- Have you ever to participated in some Special Event of your favourite artist?

No, unfortunately I haven't

6.- Have you ever to saw in live to some artist? ( I mean is some restaurant, buying at mall or in some resort?)

I have met Timothy Dalton who played one of the James Bonds, he lives (or used to live) not far from my parents and his brother was a bar man at the pub my mum and da used to go to and he came in reguarly

7.- Do you like to watch the Oscar, emmys, grammys, etc Awards?

I like the Oscars and The Brit awards, although some artist usually spoils the Brit awards

8.- Have you ever to participated in a role in a Theather representation? ( maybe just for fun or when you was on School?) …

Wow, drama was my favourite subject at school, I used to go to after school drama club too, I loved performing and we went on lots of trips to, we went to London to the theatre once, that was great

9.- If you could to meet to some artist wich one would be and say us why!...

I would love to meet Steven Segal and find out about his amazing martial arts skills and just ...well kiss him
Can I have two??
I really like Jude Law too, he is sooo gorgeous
oh and a good actor, especially in The Holiday with Cameron Diaz.

10.- Would you like to live next at some artist (? ( I mean for example your neighboor would be a TV anchor or else?)……

I don't think I would like to live next to any artist, too many paparazzi and no privacy, maybe just meet a few, maybe.

Thanks
