1. There are people who try to justify eating fish by saying they have no feelings. Well, you watch a fish gasping for breath as it’s pulled out of the water, and then try and tell me it has no feelings!
2. We spend so much time together, because that’s how we like it. I never used to go on girl’s nights out, even at school. And Paul has never liked going out for a night with the boys, either.
3. I would like them all to enjoy life and try different things until there is something they really like.
4. I would travel only by horse, if I had the choice.
5. He is a terrible planner, though. So am I.
6. I had daydreams and fantasies when I was growing up. I always wanted to live in a log cabin at the foot of a mountain. I would ride my horse to town and pick up provisions. Then return to the cabin, with a big open fire, a record player and peace.
7. When I married Paul, we lived in St John’s Wood in London. We had nice next-door neighbours, but you don’t know anyone else. Everyone lives in isolation.

12. But I wanted marriage for myself. I was not calculating about it. I wish I was more calculating.
13. We spent last night listening to Liverpool football team on the radio, wanting them to win so badly. Paul supports Liverpool. He was Everton for a while because of his family — but it’s all Liverpool now.

17. I think hard drugs are disgusting. But I must say, I think marijuana is pretty lightweight.
18. We are really on top of one another at the moment and I think it is amazing how we stay so close. Maybe that’s the test. Why not totally put yourself together, rather than always wonder whether you actually like each other?
