Animal cruelty upsets me, and whilst it has delivered us two beautiful cats I’d rather people were more responsible with regard to neutering

If you won the Euromilliones – would you still live where you currently are? Why? Why not?
In Javea yes, this house, no – we’d buy a 2nd property. (We rent our own place on a long term basis and rent one for ourselves.
If a movie was made about your life – who would play you? Why?
Carol Vorderman because everyone says I look like her
If you had to describe yourself as a cocktail… what would you be, and why?
I’m not sure about that, probably something with a spicy twist…
Right – now is the chance to tell us all about your business/website/blog if you have one (or more of course).
I’m a well respected intimate waxer with clients of all nationalities. When someone searches for waxers in Javea – it’s my name that appears. facebook.com/unasymasjavea
Continuing the wax theme, I’m an Independent Scentsy Consultant selling wickfree/flameless wax warmers. Safer than candles, no soot or toxins – and more cost effective than jar candles. Lots of pretty designs to choose from and over 80 fragrances. www.javeawaxqueen.scentsy.es
