It’s Friday, and the weekend is just around the corner. That means it is time to kick up your feet and relax with some quick fire questions. This ‘Time Out’ features Tammy Pell, marketing & events coordinator at Bell of Northampton, who it turns out has a secret talent for beekeeping!
What is the first thing you do to get the weekend started?
I’m up early, have some breakfast, and head to the gym for an 8:15 weightlifting class! It sets me up for the day and makes me feel ready for anything… including a nap in the afternoon if I’m lucky!
What is your hobby?
I’ve got a few, but my top two are cooking and dancing. Often at the same time! I’m usually found dancing around the kitchen while I cook.
What is your favourite movie?
That’s a tough one but The Shawshank Redemption has to be number one.
If you hadn’t been successful at what you do, what would you be doing instead as a career?
Something to do with baking or cooking, I think. Maybe running a series of workshops. When I was younger, I used to pretend I was Delia Smith on TV (my mum adored her).
If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
I’d love to be invisible! Imagine the fun you could have with that.
What is your secret talent?
I’m a beekeeper. I love everything about bees, especially their honey! I’ve only been doing it for 18 months, but I really enjoy playing a part in the natural cycle of the bee and the positive impact they have on the environment.
What is your favourite genre of music?
It depends on my mood! I love everything from rock ’n’ roll to Erasure.
If you could travel to any moment in time, where would you go?
I’d go back to my mum’s 70th birthday party. We organised a surprise afternoon tea for around 50 of her closest friends and family in our local church hall, completely transforming the space. It was such a happy, joyous day, and seeing how thrilled she was made it so special.
