Who would be your four dream dinner guests?
Both of my Grandmas because they both passed away before I was born. I’ve heard great things about both of them and would have loved to have met them.
David Attenborough because he was basically one of the pioneers for documentaries on TV, he has dedicated his life to nature and the world and I’m sure he would have some amazing stories to tell.
My best friend, Olivia. She is one of the only people to make me cry/laugh the hardest.
