To celebrate the publication of The Beach Hut, my publishers Orion have launched a fantastic competition to win a huge array of beach-tastic goodies, including a deck-chair and a beach barbecue!
I’ve got a horrible feeling I’m not allowed to enter, but wish you good luck if you do!
In the meantime, my biggest dilemma is my HAIR. Having taken the drastic step of going dark for a year in the mistake belief that it would take less maintenance [no! grey roots on dark show up much more quickly], I have gone back to blonde as yes, they do have more fun. But the hairdresser who re-blonded me is more than three hours drive away … how am I going to fit that into my schedule? Am I being a princess? I don’t think so – when you find someone who gets it just right, it’s a risky business going somewhere else.
Finally, a big shout out to the lovely manager at Skylon, who is posting me back my favourite mac after the BBC party the other night … It’s a fabulous venue if you are thinking of having a big celebration.
