PR - I'm here, there and everywhere!


What a great couple of weeks it's been for Count On It® labels and me. Not only have I been lucky enough to be asked onto both BBC Radio Nottingham and Lincolnshire, I have appeared in 5 articles.

Last Friday I was invited onto Radio Nottingham's The Frances Finn Show to be a 'Loose Lady' with fellow contributor, local actress and author Joy James. The show, which was hosted by Dominic Busby was great fun, we discussed amongst other things unusual children's names, man hugs and Mark Owen's affair. Joy had some great stories to tell - the best ones off-air, of course! You can listen again here:

Then today, I was lucky enough to be invited onto BBC Radio Lincolnshire's Rod Whiting morning show to be 'on the sofa' - that's us together in the studio pictured above. It was great, Rod asked me about my life, how I got to be on 'Deal or No Deal', my visit to No.10, my travels to Zimbabwe and America, how I coped after having serious spinal surgery and lots of other stuff too. Needless to say I talked a lot, Rod was a great host and made me feel very comfortable. It was also nice when he described me as a person who 'has a lust for life'. To hear how I got on, you can listen again here:-

In addition to that I have been featured in 5 different articles, they are as follows:-

Jane from Mumsclub - the online community for mums to make essential business contacts, research new business opportunities, kindly featured my visit to Downing Street in an edition of Mumsclub newsletter.

To celebrate 'mums in business' week, Start Up Donut, the business advice site, invited me to be a guest contributor for the week. My feature was on how I started my business with the help from Noel Edmonds and Business Link!

Then finally, I had a great message from Kristen at LandingPad London, who had found my Downing Street article here on my blog and kindly included it on their LandingPadLondon website, the online city guide for travellers who don't like acting like tourists.

It's all be fantastic for both Count On It®'s and my profile - I love these opportunities and welcome more. So if you want a contributor for TV, radio or press - please give me a call.
