To say this is the job of my dreams sounds corny - but it's true.  | | Ready for the next programme |
Every day is spent speaking to sports stars most of my mates would pay to meet - no it's not always glamorous, training grounds in midwinter can be miserable places to hang around, but hey that's the only downside. I took the old-fashioned route to get here - journalism college, a stint in local newspapers, then into broadcasting. I was a news reporter at the start, before I made it onto the sports desk here at East Midlands Today 18 months ago. Outside work, as well as watching sport I'm trying (and some might say failing) to get fit. I also love to travel, drink beer and dance. Top Ten List 1. Best Song Ever: Wonderwall - Oasis 2. Best TV Show Ever: The Simpsons 3. Best personal TV moment: Interviewing Psycho 4. Best place in England: Lulworth Cove, Dorset 5. Favourite/ worst food: Greedy git, I love food, especially Italian. Worst food - Brussels sprouts 6. Favourite/ worst drink: Beer by the pint - worst is gin 7. Favourite/ worst animal: Fav - Puddy the cat - worst is jellyfish 8.
