      Yo Pineapple!
      You could always mix it up and try Markio or something 😛

      If I wasn’t in science, I would definitely be in the renewable energy and smart grid business.
      It’s all about how you can use solar panels and wind farms to create local energy markets, so that people who own houses could make and sell energy to each other, rather than having to buy from a big energy company.
      It’s called “democratisation”, making something owned by everybody. I’m a total ecowarrior hippie, but I also love tech and business, so that’d be perfect for me.

      My friends say I would probably be an evil mastermind though 😀

      Elephantpineapple – it’s going to be really awkward if you call us ALL Mario. How will you tell us apart? What happens in next week’s eviction? We’ll think we’re all out! You’ll have no-one to talk to!

      Or are you doing it because it’s easier than learning our real names? If it’s that, I fully support it. I wanted to do that with my children 😉

      If I didn’t work in science I’d be Mary Berry (I love her) or a mermaid. Or a mix of both – Mary Bermaid – and I’d be on the Great British HAKE off (mermaid / fish version of GBBO)
