Role: Consultant Vascular Surgeon and Associate Medical Director

Deck the Halls or Bah Humbug? Deck the Halls all the way. Decorations everywhere, Christmas music on, but stop short of lights on the house!

Fave Christmas song/carol and why? Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, traditional and classic

Christmas dinner disaster? My Mum’s soggy sprout and chestnut mix, please don’t anyone tell her!

Best bit about Christmas? A day with family when you’re allowed to do nothing other than laze about, watch films, eat food and chocolate, and drink mulled wine!

Fave present ever and why? A Casio Keyboard from Tandy at the end of the Pack Horse Centre when I was about 8, i thought it was the most exciting thing ever, never knew how to play it though!

Who would you like to kiss under the mistletoe? I know the question only asks for one but here’s three, Susanna Reid, Cameron Diaz, and Emma Bunton. It’s Christmas, you’ve got to keep your options open!

Send us a wish for Christmas. I wish that everyone having to work at CHFT on Christmas Day has a good day!
