If you were listening in last Sunday, you’ll have heard June talking about the return of the Newark Fun Palace event, which comes to town on Friday 30 September and Saturday 1 October.
There’ll be plenty of information about it on Girls Around Town over the coming weeks but if you have a skill you’d like to share during those two days, the organisers would love to hear from you!
They’ll be holding another Meet & Greet from 10am to 11.30am on Saturday 11 June, this time at Newark Library…
Just get in touch with Sara by email here to let her know you’ll be dropping by to find out more about how you can be part of this year’s celebration of skills.
It’s an oft-used saying and one that applies to lots of different situations…
But You’ll never get a second chance to make a first impressiondefinitely fits the bill when it comes to online dating!
There’s no doubt that people giving those apps a go usually make up their mind in a split second so it’s important to catch their eye and make sure that first impression really is a good one…
And that’s just one of the things that photographer Gemma Wilks, this week’s guest on Girls Around Town, sets out to do for clients.
Gemma will be in the studio with Junein the second hour of the show to explain how she’s on a mission to abolish those bathroom selfies, replacing them with eye-catching photos and dating profiles that stop singles in their scroll.
Online dating isn’t for everyone of course, which is why she also hosts regular Single and Mingle evenings in Nottingham where guests can meet up over a drink and a bite to eat in the old-fashioned way.
And that’s not all – inspired by Channel 4’s First Dates, she’s just launched Table For Two which matches suitable couples over a delicious meal…
The only difference being there’s no TV crew present and of course no Fred Sirieix greeting guests on their arrival at the restaurant!
Make sure you Put On Your Sunday Best on 107.8FM, on the apps or onlineto hear what Gemma has to say from just after 11am this weekend…
When no doubt she and June will have plenty to share about their own first dates too, both successful and otherwise!!
Did you know that as many as 130,000 new apps are currently being released every month…
And, with lots of them becoming popular at dizzying speed, it’s getting more and more difficult to keep track of what kids are up to on their tablets and phones?
If you’re a parent anxious to keep your youngsters safe online, you’ll want to hear what wellbeing guru Rosalyn Palmer has to say when she joins June live in the studio in the second hour of this week’s Girls Around Town.
Ros will be asking the question Is your child addicted to technology? and, if you suspect that might be the case, offering her advice on what you can do about it.
She’ll have news too of the free masterclass she ran at the end of April, in which she asked participants whether it’s time to listen to a better voice and how, even if they’re able to shut out much of the external chatter, what they need to do if they’re struggling to silence the nagging inner voices too.
Make sure you Put On Your Sunday Best from 10am to 12 noon this weekend by tuning in to 107.8FM or listening on the apps, on Alexa or onlineto hear what Ros has to say from just after 11am…
No doubt she’ll have an update on life on the farm in Lincolnshire too when she pops across to Newark for her latest catch up with June!
