I haven't tried to many cocktails, to be honest I'm a lager drinker... But I do like a nice WooWoo!

1. If you could go back in time, would you choose a specific era in History? if so, which one and why?
Right now, this is a tough one. But I'm going to say the 60's. For the music, being around my age now in the 60's would be amazing, with the music like The Beatles, The Jam, The Who etc... It would be amazing.

Have a nice Sunday roast, maybe have a nap. Listen to some music, watch a film, just chill out.
3. If you could have a superpower, what would it be?
I'd fly definitely, imagine all the amazing places you could go and visit. Would be awesome.
