About Me
- Janette
- A couple of years ago, I decided that my life needed a challenge and I would put together a list of everything I wanted to do before I was 40. I e-mailed various media sources and BBC Radio Nottingham have kindly adopted me (sort of!). I will be doing regular updates on the Breakfast/Morning shows
