«I’m a complete techno freak, so it’s hard to pick just three things I couldn’t live without! Firstly, though, I guess no one these days can survive without their mobile. Mine has got quite a good voice recorder on it so I often use it to record my university lectures so that I can listen to them again at home. It’s really handy. The second thing I really love is the portable DVD player that I won in a competition last year. I’m studying at a university far away from my home town so it’s really nice to be able to put on my headphones and watch movies on the long bus journey back. I’m a bit ashamed to admit jt but I’m totally hooked on my PlayStation 2®! I know I’m 19 but I am still very keen on jt. I can play for hours!

«I’m a businesswoman so I suppose it goes without saying that I really couldn’t live without my laptop and PDA. I’m not a naturally organised person so my PDA in particular really helps me out. I use it as a diary, I change documents on jt when I’m on the move and yes, I even play games on it on the underground on my way to work! it keeps my whole life together to the extent that I would feel quite lost without jt! And my laptop allows me to store all the information my clients need. I don’t have to carry lots of heavy files when I visit them.
Apart from work, I’ve always had a passion for photography, so my absolute favourite gadget at the moment is my new digital camcorder. I’m having so much fun making home movies. I edit them using software on my laptop. It’s a great pastime.»
