All the staff would have a day out paid for by the company. The most memorable one was lunch in France, we crossed the English Channel by hovercraft.

I studied as a linguist which is why I am an editor. I studied as an artist. Both have won out...

I love words too and although I was familiar with a few of these (my grandfather always claimed a talent for rhabdomancy), I was delighted to learn a few new ones too. I didn't know until now for example that I am a dreep nullipara!
