50 things you won’t find out about

me on Facebook

My family nickname is Rabbit

My husband calls me Maddy

I hate being called Mad!

My Dad joined the Navy aged 13

My Mum was accepted in to both

the Royal College of Music &

St Martin’s College of Art

My Brother is a six foot six gentle

giant

My Brother is married with three

beautiful little girls

When I was young I wanted to be a

classical ballet dancer

When I was 11 I danced in the

Nutcracker with the

London Festival Ballet

I also danced with Nureyev at the

Sadler’s Well theatre

in London

In 1983 I was Junior Dog Trainer of

the Year

I had a dog who literally eat my

homework, my school shoes

& my car

I had a cat who once stole the

dinner I was cooking right out of

the fry pan

I wrote off my first car crashing

in to a fire hydrant

I flooded the Prime Ministers Lodge

when I crashed my car

I’ve broken almost every toe in

both feet – that’s what you get for

dancing on point

I broke my nose doing a magnificent

tumble turn off a mini tramp by

missing the mats & forgetting to

put my hands down

I can trace my family back to the

Doomsday book

My Great Aunt served in the Women’s

Royal Army Corp in Europe through

World War II

My first career choice was as an

artist

As an artist I discovered I made a

much better designer

As a designer I found I made a much

better project manager

Through uni I worked at a jewellers

stringing pearls

My first job as a designer was

designing bar codes for shampoo

bottles

I was an AFA Trainee at Lintas in

1993

I transferred to Ammirati Puris

Lintas London in 1996

I left London for New York on the

day of the Soho nail bombing

In New York I lived in a fifth

floor walk up with no air

conditioning through the hottest

summer on record

I’ve shot commercials on Hollywood

movie sets, mountain ranges in

Alaska & the sand dunes of

Botany Bay

My favourite book is Captain

Corelli’s Mandolin

I am currently listening to

anything by Beethoven or Prokofiev

My most out there adventure was

trekking with chimpanzees in

Tanzania

My scariest moment was when Frodo

the chimp went on a bit of a

rampage pulling up trees and

drumming his fists on anything he

could just because it was raining

Nothing scares me more than the

prospect of something really bad

happening to my family

My most heart wrenching moment was

learning that my cousin had died in

a car accident aged 19

I will never stop thinking how

incredible it was for my son to

have kidney reflex diagnosed in

utero - which saved him from the

prospect of needing a kidney

transplant

My husband fell in love with me in

New York over pizza, beer & videos

I first met my husband when I was

four at a neighbours swimming pool

party

My two boys think I make the best

pancakes in the world

I love seeing my children discover

things for the first time in their

life

I can make a dragon costume out of

3 pieces of cardboard, an egg

carton & a red ribbon

I can turn a scribble, a piece of

string or even a pea into a story

of great adventure

I can turn any leftovers in to a

meal

My kids will eat anything I make

for them except roast beetroot

risotto

I love gardening

I hate capers

I love chocolate

I don’t know how to do fractions

I love a good old fashioned

conversation with good friends

I can’t spell
