Couple of times when we were promoting my Amature Theatre group as I was President at the time.

Been on TV a couple of times too.
Once doing a song with a group
Then a Tonight Show many years ago where they asked if anyone in the Audience knew the song Ilkley Moor Bah Tat. Of course being a Yorkshire girl I knew it and had to sing it on TV

My wedding

and finally, as part of the production team for a new publication.

Yes, I was photo'd with my eldest daughter, talking about family history. They also printed some photos of my ancestors. Then a year later I was in an article about molar pregnancy, which affected me in 2002. My kids have been in quite a lot, various things like playing in the snow when the paper asks for snow pictures in the winter etc, plus our wedding and the childrens baptisms. I suppose the only downside, is everybody knows your business!
