Air waves…

Some weeks fly by with alarming speed, whilst others meander along gently. This one has raced along but feels like a whole month as so much has happened. It all began with a certain person nudging (possibly nagging) me to contact the local radio station who were asking for locals with specialist knowledge to become “correspondents”. That was Sunday morning. Later that day I acquiesced and sent a little e-mail to the presenter. Within minutes he responded and there followed a string of messages culminating in a phone interview which was recorded. It was quite a long call and I was sure he would edit it and have some useful information about food, particularly with Christmas in mind. We tuned the next day at the appointed time (me feeling very anxious and not a little sick with apprehension) and I was astonished that he used the whole lot! All 14 minutes! The week carried on with the usual commitments – helping out in the antique shop on two of the days, knitting and sewing with my Macmillan ladies on another and here we are again. Next week has plenty in the diary, not least a long-distance wedding to prepare for, with 2 hats to choose from, a visit from the lovely daughter, cakes to be made, mincemeat to “feed” and turn. I’m not sure if the team will feel like making two videos but I’ll be ready if they do – watch out when we resume uploading as I have some good ones up my sleeve! Have a good week x
