With Comedien Andrew Lumsden
AKA Radar

1. 9-5 You will find me:
Procrastinating with reckless abandon, convinced that what I am doing is VERY important for achieving the long term goal of eventually getting things done.
2. After 5 you will find me:
Cooking a large and overly elaborate meal in order to sustain the energy required to complete all the things I didn't do before 5pm.
3. Why I like living in…
Sin. Weddings seem so vain and self congratulatory.
4. I can't do without:
Oxygen
5. Celebrate:
Failure.
6. Under-Rated:
Standing naked in the rain.
7. My Favourite Things:
Are related to my guilty pleasure (see Q10)
8. Last Movie/CD/Book:
Books actually, a large pile of them all about New Zealand history, which I dip into occasionally in order to convince myself I'm working. Currently I'm just looking at the pictures.
9. Next Holiday:
Will be work related and somewhere in New Zealand. That way it'll be fun and linked to my new show - so it'll be tax deductible.
10. Guilty Pleasure:
The Internet’s ability to continue to enthral, yet repel me, with its depths of human endeavour. The things I have witnessed…
11. Best Advice:
Was given to me by the Head of my boarding school - ‘If your friend smells, he may not know it. As a friend you have to tell him’. I think he was speaking metaphorically.
12. Woman you admire most:
My mother, who raised three children while running a dairy farm while my father was away on business.
13. Your Mentor:
Would always say, ‘I think you could have done better’. They'd, invariably, be right.
14. Best Health Tip:
Old age is not all it's cracked up to be so have that second helping and wash it down with another drink.
15. Favourite Saying:
You make your own luck!
16. Best Life Balance Tip:
You only live once.
17. Worst Moment:
Generally happens not long after reassuring myself with my Best Life Balance Tip.
18. What's Next:
After re-reading 1 to 17 to make sure I have been appropriately wise, I shall procrastinate by continuing to dip in and out of the pile of New Zealand history books in the belief they will implant their wisdom into my brain by osmosis and provide fodder for my new live comedy show, Eating the Dog, which is about my favourite moments in New Zealand's grand history.
