Q. Everybody knows that Agro can be very mean to you, why do you think he's like that?
A. You know I ask Agro that same question almost every day and when I ask him, he always comes back with the same response:
"Well, if I wasn't mean all the time, I wouldn't be called Agro now would I?"
I guess you can't argue with that (everyone knows you can NEVER argue with the Royal Bathmat himself!)
Q. He can't be the easiest thing to face each morning. How do you do it?
A. A big cup of smiles, with a spoonful of patience and a twist of IOU. Plus, I knew what I was getting into - there's an AGROVATION WARNING in Clause 4B of my contract!
Q. Is there something special that you eat for breakfast in the mornings to help you along?
A. I am yet to discover any totally digestible item that helps me in this department - when someone comes up with a fool-proof menu, let me know.
Q. Aside from working alongside Agro, what's the best thing about being on television?
A. I really get excited by all the fabulous letters I get from devoted viewers who enjoy watching the show - I think that's one of the best parts! I could say the money, but it's not true!
