politician grew grew-up
I grew up in Ireland, so I do not have a lot of respect for most politicians.
sugar poison caffeine
We have too many poisons in our diets now, like sugar and caffeine.
bogs mum delighted
Mum and I were delighted to find out we were descended from 'bog-trotters.'
knives phobia needles
I'd never go under the knife because I have a phobia of needles.
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.
When I had my kids, I took a lot of homeopathic things, and I had them both with no painkillers.
delighted learnt paper total
I'm a total technophobe. What is wrong with paper and pen? I was delighted when I learnt the word 'Luddite,' as I thought it described me perfectly.
horrible
Because I was very big and she was very small, my mother had a horrible birth when I was born. So she always said: 'I'm never having any more kids!'
government
The government has got to do something to help independent businesses.
boarding hard tough work
It was tough going to boarding school. It was very hard work.
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
While farmers' markets are booming in cities, actual rural market towns are in decline.
