 Highlight of my career was having a case heard in the House of Lords (spent 3 days there!!!)
Personal highlight anything to do with watching my 15 year old son playing sport (sad but he is much better than I ever was). Dislikes people throwing rubbish on the floor and bad manners
Likes gallantry and Judge John Deed. Hobbies cooking which I take very seriously....
