Helloooo, from your new pin-up!

Dear Micks,

I hope you are well and that the journey over was first class :-) Let me introduce myself. I am Charlotte Reather, approximately 28 years old and your new pin-up girl. You can blame Major Turner for the fact you are saddled with yet another dog as a mascot!

This is a picture of me playing in the snow. Oh, sorry wrong upload.

This is a picture of me playing in the snow last winter. The other picture is my four year old Labrador, Private Bandit.

My aim is to write a weekly blog which will hopefully keep you entertained and up to date with the things going on in Blighty while you are away. I will make sure you are up to speed with any Ricky Hatton or John Terry stories out of The News of the Screws and will also tell you about weird goings on in my own life which are usually printed in The Field. My days vary wildly - one night I can be out on the lash with Dom Joly and Badly Drawn Boy in Soho, the next day shooting a stag in the Highlands. My life is split between country journalism and comedy - it's an exotic mix. I will reveal all exclusively to you....which reminds me, there will be a calendar - an edgy calendar! But don't get too excited, it's going to be more Michelle McManus than Victoria Silversted (again, please direct any complaints to your Commanding Officer).

I am also hoping to post several short stories a month here written by well-known authors or up and coming talent. I have 5 writers recruited so far. For any suggestions on topics of stories or if you would like to write one, email me at: charlottereather@gmail.com

Think that's it for now. I will write my first installment later this week.

Stay safe and take care - that's an order!

Love,

Charlie x
