    Sorry for being so late, Eliza.

    Hello and welcome. I read through your plan and it seemed foiled in places to me - it's a good idea, but it also seems like it may have been done before. The originality is a bit low, but what gave you the idea for it?

    I have a dog myself and my mum was just talking about this problem the other day so I thought up this idea.

    It's an interesting idea, yet you didn't go into detail about costing, and also any business dates and plans. Can you summarise those now for me?

    A pack of four would cost £5 and I would hope to make 100 packs in a trial period and with my profit, use the money to improve the product if I need to.

    Okay.

    I noticed that you've lived in a lot of places over a short life, as your CV showed. You do realise that setting a business up in one place as a main office is pretty much mandatory - so would you stay in the UK with this business?

    Yes. I moved around as a child as my parents were diplomats and were posted to these different countries. However, we are now settled in the UK and I would stay here for the business.

    Okay.

    Finally, what would you say you have learnt overall from the Apprentice experience?

    I have learnt how I am more creative than I thought and how much I enjoy business. It has been an amazing experience and hope it continues for a bit longer. :)
