You haven't got a scary face at all. You are beautiful. Everyone will think you look like Godzilla you nutcase. Can't wait for it to be published - your 15 minutes of fame plus some as you will be in every doctor's surgery for months!! Keep your pecker up to find the elusive two. The power of the media does work most of the time.

Hiya Tina What great news. Can't wait to read the article. Hope my name and website gets a mention!!! I cannot believe how the time has flown since Sally and I were helping you in your search for Eric, your dad. Let me know when it is due in the magazine please. I need, and want to thank you, for contacting your friend in New Zealand whose son, Chris, has been searching for his daughter for 18 years. Chris is over here at present and is spending time with his lovely daughter - the whole family are so excited at being reunited. Without your recommendation they wouldn't know where to start. I will send the piccies on to you when I get them. Kath (gran to newly found young woman) is so grateful to you for helping. Much love Joan

ooooooh - will we need to be security screened before we can speak to you now??? That's fab - and I know from my work on papers how special these things are for the people taking part. My tip - don't forget to ask the photographer for his name, or even his card it helps if you're after copies of the pictures and you need to call the magazine. Sometimes we have so many photographers running about all over the country it's hard to keep track of whats whats (or perhaps I'm just really badly organised) Have fun Zoe
