like looking at the camera so I've asked our followers on Instagram to send in a
load of questions to ask you Palkia art has asked favorite child question mark
who's your favorite child I don't have a favorite child I'm very lucky to have
three children all very different so they all have very good things about
them and we've always strengths and weaknesses yes
what are your son's strengths and that's from follow my stars what are my
strengths okay that you have a plan and then you see it through so yeah like you
taught yourself Spanish from a background of not being good at
languages and you taught yourself Spanish because
you wanted to go and live in Spain you did that English teaching course you
know seen through things through and also been quite adventurous very nice
thank you and weakness what would you say is my biggest weakness um sometimes
not concentrating very well and and then perhaps also being sometimes maybe too
swayed by what what other people think of you maybe hmm very true you shouldn't
have started a YouTube channel right if you know what kind of child was Harry in
childhood he was very good yo-yoing and used to do that hours a day and anything
he did he'd do it so much that he'd kind of wear himself out so you know tennis
he became very keen on and then he on table tennis when we're on holiday
and he was about eight years old and he took him everybody staying at the hotel
adults children everyone and beat them at table tennis and he'd he'd do it so
much till he was exhausted never knew when to stop and what about like in
school I think you just wanted to play football and be with your friends you
weren't interested in learning no you couldn't concentrate okay yeah
yes yes yes are you proud of your son well of hurry
yes of me yeah yes I am I am I think he is blossoming into a good young man how
would you like your afternoon Kutta I like it in a big mug with a little bit
of milk just a little bit and what type of milk do you like that's the red one
yeah it's a bit watery yes it's a watery milk but I don't like the taste of fatty
tea what was the funniest moment from my childhood was it funny my childhood
wasn't that funny were you thinking of anyone in particular well I was thinking
when you poured a bowl of cereal on my head can you remind me of that what why
should we have I think hey I used to get a bit cross at mealtimes with the
children and poured you out was it cornflakes or rice crispy rice krispies
yeah and you were playing me up and it was breakfast before school and I was
all stressed and I think I just tipped it up over his head and bit ashamed
really so I was playing up I was being really annoying yes and you poured the
whole the whole bowl right do you remember my reaction I did do it to my
sisters where did you sit with a pint of milk when I was
oh my god we were teenagers on our own in the house and she was annoying me so
I went and got a pint of milk I just slowly oh my god so evil I was crap in
school but I'm blossoming into a nice young man and my mom loves to pour milk
over people's heads I think it's interviews going pretty

physical you know maybe roofing up on the roof roofing yeah some sort of
building work or gardening type work yeah I thought how he'd be quite
practical and do want to do something outside and physical
what's her favorite cake what's your favorite cake mom that's from Michael

over 100 pounds and you have the best champagne and you have a little
amuse-bouche thing and then a little starter and then the cake stand with
scones and wonderful little salmon are just gorgeous
I think yeah because it was so special have you met any members of the royal
family oh well when I was a child the Queen Mother
she's dead now but she came to the street next to our street to judge the
flowers in the front gardens and I was with my cousins
and we pushed through the crowds and got right in front of her and my cousin was
talking to her telling her our names and everything and my mother used to go to
garden parties that the Pat Buckingham Palace really yeah because she worked
for a charity and if you work for a charity you get invited to them and then
my great my grandmother was presented to the Queen when she became when she was
18 because in England that's what used to happen it was called
coming out and you'd wear diamonds and a long white dress and you'd be presented
to the Queen it was a tradition when you became 18 yeah we
rage if you were you know the Thurston sort of class the person right and what
kind of what you had to be part of the aristocracy
well aristocracy but posh yeah what do you like most about England

think about Argentinian people as from a Nadella Valley well when I was a child
my best friend her father was Argentinian and was very
into horses they used to have a maid and they were they were they rich and so
there's the only Argentinians I ever met so I think of them as quite exotic and
you know someone else has asked do you speak any other languages you could
communicate with Argentinians estudio español mm-hmm
Daniel is there any reflections on what I said people saying commenting on what

married do you think I'll find that special someone I don't know I would
hope say because it's nice to have someone Society yeah this is the last
question it's about tea okay just seems like the perfect question to end it
tea is also a very big thing in Turkey have you ever tried Turkish tea well I
wonder if Turkish tea is like Moroccan tea do you have it with sugar did you
like it um I'm not married on sweet tea I prefer
tea without sugar right so the answer you don't like it you can tell you don't
