It is very rare for me to have second bite of the cherry but I had the good fortune to meet Helen Highwater on one of her autumn trips to North Wales as it happened to coincide with a walking weekend I had booked with two friends.
My plan had been to be en-femme as both were old friends who had been out with me at the Edinburgh Festival. However one cancelled so I chose not to.
We met Helen at the Royal Oak Hotel in Betws-y-coed. Helen had dined in the restaurant and we had eaten in the walkers bar, in a bit of a rush due to finishing our walk late, so we came through to the bar where we found her looking glamorous and fitting in perfectly unlike us in our jeans. Whilst I regretted not being dressed we still had a lovely relaxed chat.
Teresa - thank you, that is most kind and you always make us feel so welcome, and I was honoured that you shared the photo, which means a lot to you, with me.
