cart fallen falling neck nurses saying spent
I spent a day in a neck brace on a hospital trolley after falling from a horse and cart in Ireland. All the nurses thought I was a traveler, which made me laugh. Who else comes into a hospital saying they've fallen off a horse and cart?
boarding hard tough work
It was tough going to boarding school. It was very hard work.
cream setting wear
It's all very well setting up your own brand of face cream or exercise wear - but Christ, it's so shallow.
best-friend baby should-have
I've known my best friend since I was a baby, and I don't know what I would do without her. She is always straight with me and can make me laugh hysterically. Everyone should have someone like that in their life.
knives phobia needles
I'd never go under the knife because I have a phobia of needles.
mom numbers priorities
Never being number one in your list of priorities and not minding at all.
cousin people sole
People talk about me as if I am the sole inheritor of the Guinness family fortune and worth masses, but I have hundreds of cousins.
children mirrors wrinkles
My face hasn't matured as I've grown up, and neither has my sense of humour. In the mirror, I see an older version of myself as a child, although I do have more wrinkles and freckles.
cities towns decline

istanbul roaches half
I once stayed in a roach-infested hotel in Istanbul for a work trip. I had to share my room with a male model, and pointedly all we talked about was our other halves.
sugar poison caffeine
We have too many poisons in our diets now, like sugar and caffeine.
judging would-be generations
Be kind, don't judge, and have respect for others. If we can all do this, the world would be a better place. The point is to teach this to the next generation.
banks coming cuts rate
We've got to make greedy banks pass on interest rate cuts in full, and we've got to see rents coming down.
When I had my kids, I took a lot of homeopathic things, and I had them both with no painkillers.
