Which
is why I now live and work in Derby, and Derbyshire, and all my
children have been born there! It's turned into a love affair.
I rapidly realised what a friendly city we'd come to, what great
people live here, and what a lovely place it's been to bring up
kids... especially with the beautiful Peak district on our door-step.
It wasn't ALL plain sailing. Initially when we moved to Derby, I
was working at the BBC's Pebble Mill studios in Birmingham.
Then I became the Stoke reporter for Midlands Today, often travelling
from Derby to Staffordshire, to Shropshire, to Birmingham and back
to Derby in a day!
It was a relief when East Midlands Today started in 1991, and I
became first the Leicester reporter, and then Derbyshire reporter
and now a special features reporter.
It's a tough job having to cover such a wonderful region, but I'll
just have to go on putting up with it!
