Oh good lord....Its a road trip!

So one of my oldest girlfriends is getting hitched (old as in I've known her since I was 13, not as in SHES old) and Im heading back to Aotearoa for the wedding.

Another friend and I are turning it into a bit of a Thelma and Louise weekend (sans cliff diving and unfortunately, probably sans Brad Pitt) with a road trip, plenty of booze, catching up with all our old friends, dancing on tables and generally making a total disgrace of ourselves :D

These are the girls I have grown up with, my sisters and my comrades.

We have laughed together, cried together, torn strips off each other and punched other peoples lights out for each other!

We have drifted all over the world, seen each other through broken relationships, births of children and career crises's. We have gone through stages of not seeing or speaking to each other for years but put us all in the same room with a few bottles of cheap wine and its like we are 14 and headbanging to Guns N Roses together again!

So, Louise, Heres to your big day, I cant wait to see you on Saturday in your meringue!

Cola, Jasmine, Nicola and Pam, I love you guys with all my secret bogan heart xxx

Curly Sue to appear on Channel V and Nickelodeon

So I was minding my own business the other day when my mobile phone rang, thinking it was probably my husband ringing to remind me to do something mundane and domestic, I answered it with an uninterested "mmmph".

All I heard was Hi....blah blah blah....from foxtel wardrobe...blah blah blah..

It took a few beats before I realised what the person on the other end was talking about and then my knees started to knock and I went dry in the mouth!

To backtrack a bit...the husband of my best friend in all the world (x 10000000 now!) is the audio director at Foxtel and asked for my business card to pass onto the wardrobe girls at his work. I never really thought anything more of it until I get the phone call and ...

THEY WANT TO USE MY THINGS ON THEIR PRESENTERS....

ON TV.....

AND GIVE ME CREDITS AT THE END OF THE SHOW!

She asked me if I wanted to start now and do the last couple of shows for this year or wait until next year so I said HELL YES! Why wait??

I cant even begin to comprehend the exposure and the opportunity this is and I SO hope it all goes ahead although it is very very nerve wracking!

I gave her my Etsy addy and told her to have a look and get back to me so ...waiting...waiting...waiting!

Watch this space..
