Gorgeous Bolton Abbey
27th April 2013
Whenever you need some fresh air at the weekend, head to North Yorkshire and take in all that Bolton Abbey has to offer http://www.boltonabbey.com/
Sure to be a fabulous day if you need to get out and about. It has to be followed by a trip into nearby Skipton to enjoy Fish and Chips from Bizzie's (the best in the UK IMHO)

The TJC Hot Vessel
8th April 2013
The new TJC hot liquid vessel in Amethyst purple !! Already many customers and viewers are saying they'd like one (in various gemstone colours, of course). I can't promise but I'm going to work on the buyers to see whether it might just be possible.

Panorama? Nah, it's the Holiday and Cruise Channel!
Friday 5th April 2013
Thought you'd like a peep into studio 1 at The Holiday and Cruise Channel. Was in filming some cruise shows today and this is the view from our desk. Clever iphone 5 for having this new facility on it (geek alert). I'll get my coat!
The NEW TJC sealed vessel
Tuesday 2nd April 2013
This will always be with me now under the TJC desk. We have to have them in the studio to prevent certain presenters and their spillages (no names, naturally :). If this is fascinating - I'm waiting for the hot liquids one to arrive!

You get my drift? :)
24th March 2013
Some lovely spring sunshine (oh - no, that's how the story should go). Instead, four foot drifts on a wonderful walk in Skipton, North Yorkshire. Now that's what I call Sunday Special.

Ah, just one sunrise in Venice...

I was lucky enough to go to Venice for 24 hours in January for The Jewellery Channel to help source some fantastic new Italian Chain designs. An early start and a rewarding sunrise.......

Bond under the stars

I was lucky enough to go on a short Med cruise on the Carnival Breeze. Out on deck late, popcorn in hand watching a Bond. Now that's a nice break in September

India Trip with TJC
8th August 2012
Meeting some children from a local school close to Jaipur. These children are helped daily with food supplies as a result of a local charity supported directly by TJC's parent company. It was quite a humbling experience for us who live in the land of plenty. Happier kids I have yet to see anywhere else.

Tanzanite Treats

Watching Tanzanite Jewellery being set by hand in the workshops. Stone by painstaking stone - the work that goes in from so many people was truly amazing to see.
