My favourite dishes are Spanish tapas – jamon de bellota – manchego cheese.

If you won the Euromilliones – would you still live where you currently are?

I love Spain so I would stay here as my family are close by and its a beautiful place to live. I would also buy a place in Sierra Nevada for weekends.

Well most people always ask if I am related to Mike Baldwin off Coronation Street so i guess it may as well be him.
