Tell us about what you do: I spend a lot of my time working on the supplements that come with the magazine, which means I get to write features on a whole variety of things, from the perfect roast dinner to the latest wallpaper designs! I also write all the news stories for our website, a new one every day means I'm constantly snooping around for a scoop.

Your favourite decorating tip? My best decorating tip is to ALWAYS use a tester pot when painting - I had a bit of a disaster with a funny purple colour!

What is the most surprising thing about you? The most suprising thing about me is that despite being health conscious, I am still completely incapable of resisting a greasy chicken escalope bap on a Monday! (Yum)
