  • MR AND MRS SMITH QUESTIONNAIRE:

    WHAT FIRST ATTRACTED YOU TO THE OTHER?

    Annabelle: Well he was so sweet. He called me ALL the time asking how I was and what I’d been up to. A real gentleman, taking the initiative. I like that.

    Will: We talked a lot. She was on Vodafone so minutes weren’t an issue. It’s satisfying being on the phone and knowing you’re not paying a dime. Sometimes I just ring my voicemail just for fun, because i know it's included in my package.

  • MR. AND MRS. SMITH QUESTIONNAIRE

    WHAT ONE THING WOULD YOU CHANGE ABOUT ANNABELLE?

    Will: Oh nothing, she’s perfect. And she’s brilliant at putting up with me and all my foibles. I don’t know how she does it sometimes.

    WHAT ONE THING WOULD YOU CHANGE ABOUT WILL?

    Annabelle: His hair.

  • MR. AND MRS. SMITH QUESTIONNAIRE

    HOW MANY CHILDREN DO YOU WANT?

    Annabelle: I come from a two child family and I think that’s the ideal.

    Will: One if we can guarantee it’s a girl. I don’t feel comfortable around men at the best of times, what if a son grew up to like rugby and slapping other men on the back? I’d be trapped in a never ending nightmare.

  • MR. AND MRS. SMITH QUESTIONNAIRE

    HOW SHOULD A COUPLE DECIDE WHERE TO HOLIDAY TOGETHER?

    Annabelle: I’d recommend making a list of all the things that you both want out of a holiday and taking that list to a travel agent. But Will insists we go to Jersey.

    Will: There isn’t really a decision to make, not as long as Jersey is in the channel. If you must go somewhere else (for instance during a Foot-and-Mouth crisis), you have 3 main points to consider.
    1. Do they flush toilet paper away or put it in a bin?
    2. What is the safety record of the airline?
    3. Always check in the index of Phil Collins’ autobiography to see if he’s been there and what he thought. We honeymooned in a hotel in Geneva adjacent to the one in which he recorded Genesis’s Invisible Touch album.
