I travelled to London to visit Decorex 2010 for the wonderful stands showing beautiful things for interiors. It was great opportunity to meet interior designers and potential new outlets for my landscape photography.

I joined NOMINE Community Choir

2nd September 2010

Standing patiently in a long Post Office queue a few weeks ago I noticed a poster about NOMINE Community Choir. It's sole purpose is to raise funds for the charity Children's Hospice South West so I joined.

Forget the X Factor. If you enjoy singing a wide variety of music come along to join us or come and listen to one of the concerts which are free to attend. There's a retiring collection for Children's Hospice South West. See the websites in the LINKS on the right hand side of the page.

Radio Interviews

25th August 2010 & 1st September

What a fantastic experience to be interviewed on BBC Radio Wales twice in one week and to see how things work behind the scenes! Talking 'on air' was a new and exciting challenge. The show hosts, Roy Noble as well as Jamie and Louise made it all look so easy.

Listening to myself on iPlayer later helped me to evaluate how I could improve for future talk shows.

I climbed Mount Snowdon!

22 August 2010

I feel very proud of myself for climbing Mount Snowdon.

It's been on my 'to do' list for a while to check out the location for future picture taking. We climbed up on the Pyg track and descended on the Miners track.

I hadn't anticipated queuing to clamber up the steeper sections due to the volume of tourists. Some people who travelled up on the train seemed surprised at how cold it was at the summit as they alighted in shorts and T-shirts! We had a brief glimpse of the 360 degrees view before the cloud cover enveloped us.

The Power of Networking

11th August 2010

While on the Vale Women's Business Network stand at the Vale of Glamorgan Show, I had a conversation with another business women, a freelance producer for BBC Radio Wales, which led to an invitation for me to be interviewed on the Roy Noble Show on 25th August about my landscape photography.

Jane Hutt, Welsh Assembly Member, and patron to Vale Women's Business Network, also came to talk with members at our stand.

Jane had seen the newspaper article, published in the Western Mail in July, about me inspiring others to cope with alopecia (hair loss). This article led to another invitation to be interviewed, this time, on the Jamie and Louise Show BBC Radio Wales on 1st September.
