Saturday’s come round so quickly…

This has been a busy week. Following Manic Monday, we made a video on Tuesday which just wasn’t very good, it’s only the second time we have had to discard one thankfully but left me feeling a bit deflated. So I sat down to do some crochet and watch “Escape to the Country” when the phone rang. It was someone from Radio Suffolk who wanted me to chat with Lesley Dolphin on Wednesday afternoon. That put me in a spin – I had discovered it would be “live” so no room for error. What would she ask? I probably ought to listen to some of her programme too! So Wednesday we remade the troublesome video, during which time the husband was on door-duty in case the postman rang the bell and he walked around with the phone in his hand…just in case! Lesley’s producer rang at the appointed time, so enthusiastic and clearly grinning from ear to ear (!) Then we were off. I’d made notes so I could tell her about the 20 countries that have appeared on our statistics map, the nearly a thousand people who looked at the website on Monday and anything else she asked. She was tickled that I’d messaged Mike to explain why he had problems with his biscuits. We chatted for just over seven minutes, amazingly. Phew. And the postman? He brought me flowers from a lovely young friend. X
