Taryll-No! Not the Biscuit Tin!

The rules of the Biscuit Tin: In the biscuit tin there are 100 envelopes. Each contains a horribly difficult or fun question.You most open 20 envelopes at random and answer the question inside. Amongst your 20 you must choose......one Tough Cookie- the personal question asked by smash hits and one Jimmy Dodger-The question of a saucy nature.

If you could swap place with anyone, who would it be?

I don´t think I would want to swap places with anyone. Maybe Uncle Michael, because I like music and I think he´s the greatest musician in his field. He´s brilliant. That´s if I had to, but I want to be myself.

What´s your fav place in the world?

My favourite place in the world is my house. I like to be home. I´m a homebody. I like to be around my things, my bed, my video, my music and I´m not home too much anymore. I don´t like too going out too much. There´s a lot of pretty places in the world but that has to be my favourite place to be.

Do you pick your nose and eat it??? (Tough Cookie)

Only when I´m super hungry. If I´m stuck on a Island or something. I think snot is really good with sandwiches not too much though, just on top of the ketchup.

Do you believe in life after death?

I don´t think anything dies, I think that everything is living, it might not be psyically alive but it´s alive somewhere. I believe there´s some kind of life after death. I don´t know about reincarnation. I think there are people who remind of somebody that has passed away but I don´t think it´s the actual person. I believe that after someone dies their always around you. There just not dead.

Do you sleep with a Teddy bear?

No, I guess when I was younger I slept with a blanket..... Like a Donald Duck blanket. I just sleep holding a pillow now.

What´s the most important thing your parents taught you when you were growing up?

I think to respect older people. To respect yourself. Just to be who you are. Stay down to earth. Remember you are not better than anyone else. I see a lot of people getting big heads when they get things going for them. That´s not me. Keeping your family safe. How important my brothers are. Keeping your family safe is probably the most important, because that lives with you forever as a lesson that you keep for life.

Have you ever belched in a embarassing place?

Probably, but I can´t rememeber.

Do you read all your fanmail?

I can´t read it all. I do read some fanmail. Sometimes I answer but tend to call them. I guess I´m lazy but I think it´s easier to call. You know talk to them for ten minutes. One time I called a fan just out of the blue and it turned out it was her birthday so that was quite amazing to me. But it´s hard to call everyone.

Do your quilt covers and curtains match?

No. I don´t have curtains I have blinds. My cover is just black and white. It´s a double cover so for a couple of weeks I´ll sleep with one side and then flip it over and sleep with the other side for another two weeks, then I´ll wash it. No I´m joking. Make sure you print I´m joking. I don´t want the readers thinking I´m a slob.

What´s the most embarassing thing you ever done? (Jimmy Dodger)

I always get asked this question and I never know. I know one thing that´s embarassing. My voice once cracked on stage. But that´s what happens when you sing live. I can´t think of any thing better..............(thinks hard)............No, nothing really.

What´s your favorite fruit?

Oranges and Tangerines. I like fruit. I like Pineapples and pears but I can´t eat grapefruit. No grapefruit for me. I don´t really like raspberries either or blueberries. Strawberries are alright.

What are your favorite flavour crisps?

We call them chips. I don´t really eat chips too much so I can´t answer that. I guess if I had to it would be B-B-Q chips. I don´t eat chips cause they´re too fattening, the fat is too much for me. You get about five chips and there´s too much fat.

What´s the most exotic thing you can cook?

I can´t cook many things so I guess it´s got to be pancakes or nachos. I can make french toast and sandwiches but that´s not really cooking .......(pause).........Well grilled cheese sandwiches is kind of cooking, is´nt it??

Have you ever played Spin The Bottle?

No, I watched it being played. I never played because I didn´t want to kiss anyone. My first kiss was when I was 14. I didn´t play spin the bottle until I was 11 or 12 and by that time I wanted my first kiss to be special. I would´nt want my first kiss to be in a game because your first kiss stays with you forever.

How do you see yourself in the year 2010?

I see myself at home relaxing, still doing music, with kids I guess, I´ll be 34, I don´t want to be an old father. One of those fathers that you can´t paly with. I´d like to be involved with my son. Hmmmm, I need some kids soon, huh??? Maybe when I´m about 26.

What´s your idea of a brilliant party?

It has to be fun. I don´t think I would want beer and all that stuff there. Maybe if i had control over it, like if they had one glass. After that start getting drunk and then it goes crazy and people start throwing up. I want everyone to be sober. I want them to play basketball, to play games, good dancing, video games- have a good tournament. That´s what I would do for my party.

Do you have B.O?

Can I pass on that one? That´s a difficult question to answer because I don´t know if I have B.O.
