TONY ALLERTON

1.How long have you been with MMCS?

      I Joined MMCS in March 2004 for Copacabana

 

2.Your role in MMCS?

      Membership Secretary and part-time tea boy (Makes a lovely brew - Editor).

 

3.Favourite musical, and why?

      Singing in the Rain. It was the first film musical I saw as a youngster in the 50s, I just loved Gene Kelly’s tap dance sequence in the rain, it was pouring and yet he didn’t seem to care and remained cheerful throughout, this created an everlasting impression for me. No matter how bad things get, try and remain happy and keep smiling! A philosophy I have tried to maintain over the years. It used to be shown on black/white TV as often as The Sound of Music and The Great Escape are now.

 

4.Which animal are you most like and why?

      Elephant (For remembering things from long ago!)

 

5.If you could invite 3 people to dinner (dead or alive), who would they be?

      Queen Victoria, Winston Churchill, T.E.Lawrence

 

6.X Factor or Strictly and why?

      Neither

 

7.Favourite food?

      This is a hard one, I have eaten all sorts of dishes in many countries all over the world but Italian is probably my favourite.

 

8.Favourite holiday destination?

      Victoria Falls National Park. (Stunning sights and sounds of the Falls plus an abundance of wildlife)

 

9.Dream job?

      CEO of an Airline.

 

10. If you won the lottery, how would you spend the winnings?

      I'd make structural changes to our home, donations to certain charities/family and invest the rest.
