In March I did an interview for a University of West of England (UWE) first year journalism student, Tamara Toothill, for her end of year project. I always like to give time to students as I hope that when I need help someone will give a little of their time.
Tamara was lovely and this was the article she wrote about me, which she submitted last week.
