Well done Sam - I love they way they call you a "plucky teenager"

You must be becoming quite a celeb now - loads of radio interviews and even going to rival radio stations - good for you :wink:

Yeah i know, they all think i'm mad, but it's something which has to be done!! :)
And as i work in a shop, some of the customers were asking if it was me in the paper, and my dads work mates saw it and now all wanna sponsor so it's working!!
Good luck to everyone else!!! :D

I've just had a phone call from Kate Southern, a reporter with the Enfield Independent. Gonna get some photos taken at Arnos Grove on Sunday, to go in next week's issue with any luck (due out on Wednesday).

Cheers,

Barry

The Enfield Independent ignored my letter!

When did you send yours off?

I didn't. I faxed both them and the Advertiser one of Geoff's handy personalised Press Releases. ;)

In the interests of fairness, however, I'm planning on giving Kate yours and Andrew's details as well, though making it clear you're not part of my team.

I was considering sending copies to local radio, but we haven't got any really local stations that it would "suit" and I figured Geoff would want to contact BBC London himself.

Cheers,

Barry

Nah, don't worry about it!

Plug yourself to bits! We'll be fine with just the Gazette. Though to be fair, we've had no sponsors yet who spotted us in there..

I'm just surprised that they've picked up on it with someone else, since I posted one of those on Monday..

Actually, that said, I do have a bit of patchy history with the Independent. Maybe they've got my name on some list of people never to deal with again..

The actual date has never crossed my lips. In fact, I told Kate that we'd been asked not to reveal the actual date 'til nearer the time...

Cheers,

Actually, the name 'Kate' rings a bell..

I think she may be the one I sent an e-mail to, calling the Independent a bunch of 'thieving bastards..'

Might be wrong, though..

Ahhh, lovely.

How much have you made from that advertisment, then? Was it worth the effort?

That said, I have been meaning to stock up on Generic Fosamax...
