Q&A
DROMORE
woman Claire McConnell, 29, is Manager of the Estee Lauder
counter in Menarys, Bow Street Mall. She has won various
awards for the Beauty Company including the 'best of the
best' customer service award.
What do you like doing on your day off?
I love to relax and go shopping with my husband or mum. I
recently passed my driving test so I love going out in the
car for a spin.
If you were to choose your favourite meal
what would it be, where and why?
Definitely the Halfway House near Banbridge. The food is
gorgeous. My favourite dish is the Carpetbaggers steak with
Steak Diane Sauce and banoffee for dessert.
What has been your proudest moment?
Winning the all Ireland Estee Lauder 'best of the best'
competition for customer service.
What was the most frightening moment of
your life?
Five years ago when my dad had a heart attack. Thankfully he
is ok now.
How would you describe your taste in
clothes?
When I am not at work I wear smart/casual clothes during the
day and if I am going out in the evening I like to dress up.
What would you do if you won a million
pounds?
I would give a lot to charity and my family.
What was your most embarrassing moment?
I really cannot think of any so that is quite embarrassing
not being able to answer this question.
What music do you like?
I love most music except rap. I like singing along to songs
when I am driving.
What sports person do you most admire?
I am not a fan of sports but my husband is a big Liverpool
Football Club fan. He thinks Steven Gerrard is great. I
might not have an interest but I hear plenty about football
and golf.
Describe your best ever holiday. What
would your dream holiday be?
I got married in Antigua three years ago and stayed at the
Blue Water Hotel. It was amazing. I would love to go back
there as we were pampered from start to finish.
What is your greatest remaining ambition?
To carry on being happy and thankful for everything I have.
If you could spend a day with a celebrity
whom would you choose?
Ann Maurice who presents House Doctor.

My husband, a book and advanced night repair for my skin.
