Really interesting afternoon last Thursday when I was an expert on the Guardian Live Q&A.
I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed myself and never has two hours gone by so quickly.
I'm used to working with clients face to face or over the phone so working in a different medium...a chat room added another dimension.
If you are looking for your next job you might find some of the comments made by the panel of use.
Here is the link to the Q&A

In The Press Today
Lovely feature in the Evening Telegraph tonight, the web version doesn't show the photo of me, (which is huge). There should have been two pictures but we couldn't locate the jpeg version of the second picture in time for the print deadline so I guess they just enlarged the one photo they had...how embarrassing!

Dog Shows, Networking & Crufts
Today we went here.
http://www.showground.org.uk/
What can I say?
If you had of asked me this time last year if I would be showing a dog at a county show, (well I didn’t actually, her owner did, she is just fostered by me). I would have laughed.
How I came to look after her, and how I entered up being there today is far too long a story for a blog.
One word just about sums it up though – networking. Oh and staying in touch with people. The power of contact, of knowing someone, of information sharing, is, I think nearly as strong as the waves in the sea. The power to make things happen is there if you focus on it, get organised and try it.
Stuff just happens, some stuff you ask for and other things occur just by co-incidence. Here is what I got through networking co-incidence.
So we didn’t qualify for Crufts, she came fifth, (we had to be in the first three). However, her brother romped home with a straight first and I await news if he gets best in show!
To take her mind off today’s events and to cheer her up, I have just left her watching this on her lap top in the kennel!
