My perfect weekend – Jamie Cullum
Song-writer and jazz pianist Jamie Cullum lives in London
with his wife Sophie Dahl, the model and cookery writer. He
enjoys going to markets, French films, and playing cards at
weekends.
Jamie says, ‘In my work I travel a lot and I stay in different
hotels, so my perfect weekend is at home with my family
and friends. I live in a flat in north-west London next to my
brother, Ben, and at weekends I like being with him and my
wife, Sophie. On Friday nights, we often go to a club – we all
love dancing.
On Saturdays, we get up late and I make breakfast; that’s
important to me. Then I sit at my piano – it’s in my kitchen
– and I play for a couple of hours. I don’t write songs, I just
play. My cat, Luna, listens. Sometimes in the afternoon we go
shopping in Portobello market. I love old things. I have black
leather cowboy boots from there. Also, I look for old postcards
– I like reading about people from the past. In the evening, we
often watch a French or Japanese film – I enjoy foreign films.
After that I like playing cards – poker – with friends,
sometimes until early Sunday morning. We sleep late on
Sundays, but then I like cooking Sunday dinner, usually roast
chicken. I really enjoy cooking. In the evening I call my parents
and my nan – they like hearing about my week.
