This was a bolt out of the blue. We were asked with about a weeks notice if I would like to be on TV (a minor sky channel but my first TV none the less).

It was a really amazing experience and I loved every moment of it! It was surprising how much we got through in an hour. My favourite bit was where I was able to talk about a subject close to my heart which is the under presentation of women (especially young) women and politics.

The short notice caused a need to do quite a lot of juggling for childcare and as usual I was particularly grateful to my parents but I was also grateful to my wonderful friend Ann for stepping in too at the last minute.
