Radio Love

Exciting news - I've just been asked by BBC3 Counties Radio to go over to their Studios in Luton to be on their show discussing relationships and dating issues. Tempting Fate has their head office in Cambridge but members come from across East Anglia and the Counties Radio reaches areas that we cover. They particularly want to talk about love the second time around for the over 50's. This is a hot topic at the moment what with the population reaching almost two thirds to 45's and over soon. Some interesting statistics emanate from the Association of British Introduction Agencies, in that the ratio of males to females in this age group is 6 women to every man, that currently come forward as singles looking for someone. Lucky men who seem to have a wide choice at the moment. However I truly believe that if you do keep yourself looking, feeling and being young everyone will find that special person in their life.

I'm told so many times by people I interview that they just don't feel their age. If you look back to when your parents were in their 50's I expect you'll realise that people nowadays just don't look their age any longer. Some prime role models of this are Jane Fonda, Felicity Kendall and Twiggy. All these women are 5o's to 60's and look fantastic.

Another Radio Station that has contacted me is the West Suffolk Hospital Radio based in Bury St Edmunds. This is the number one radio station for those people who unfortunately have to spend some time there. The programmes are very varied and interesting with lots of special requests being played. I've again been asked to talk about dating issues and personal relationships. I expect when youre lying in your hospital bed you can go over and over again in your mind the relationship youre in or not, as the case may be! I'll be answering some questions from patients on some of their problems and giving them some tips for improving their love life.

I really enjoy radio and would love to try doing more in their area. More of that later.....
