Debra - Mother Murphy

Debra is a Yorkshire lass through and through, whose passion from an early age was to cycle or walk in the beautiful Yorkshire countryside. In her late teens, she fell in love with the Lake District, especially the Langdale Valley, and hopes that one day she'll be able to live there.

Of course, coming from Halifax and living across the road from the Rowntree Mackintosh factory (now Nestle), Debra was destined to have a sweet tooth. Cycles and walks always seem to involve chocolate of some sort, a Yorkie Bar, Toffee Crisp, or a couple of Quality Street sweets, but Debra's also quite partial to Cadbury's Dairy Milk.

In the late 1990s, Debra moved from Yorkshire to Scotland. Life continued to include walking, cycling and chocolate, but in 2005 along came Scotsman Jim, who fell in love with Debra's gentle Yorkshire accent; soon they became Mr and Mrs.

Debra still lives in Scotland with her husband, eating chocolate, walking, and cycling, but she continues to take regular trips down to Yorkshire to see her children and grandchildren.

Debra still dreams of living in the Lake District.
