[Shaun Attwood @shaunattwood]

Congratulations to Sophia Greenwood and Helen Croydon on the publication of their book, Forbidden Love: A True Story of Adoption, Reunion and Longing which is now available worldwide on Amazon as a paperback and ebook.
DESCRIPTION
When Sophia, adopted as a baby, set out to find her birth parents, she hoped it would give answers about where she came from and why she was given away.
But nothing prepared her for the tumultuous events this reunion sparked. What began as a quest for truth gave rise to a secret that went on to change the course of her life and challenge all that she knew about love.
This heart-breaking and brave true story explores love and loss, belonging and identity, and the lifelong consequences of a mother-baby bond broken too soon.

Came across this distressed, wild (but friendly!) horse, who had lost its friends, while out doing mountain bike hill reps on the South Downs. Actually I filmed it a few weeks ago but forgot to post. I believe it’s safely reunited now!

@SCsupport that didn't work. it just sends me back to the articles! help!

[Helen Croydon @helen_croydon]

@SCsupport please can you give me an email address so that i can contact you about accessing my account. when i try to log a ticket it just goes to help articles and i go around in circles.

[Helen Croydon @helen_croydon]

@SCsupport obviously i can't do that because i can't access my account. i need an email, or please can I DM you?

Back on @BBCRadioLondon yesterday on @middleagedminx show, Chewing the Fat.
My topic: Should I feel environmental guilt? I do! And I increasingly find that I judge others who don't make an effort to reduce their waste. Is this a good example or preachy?

@runcandice I hear you. As both journalist and a PR I know how hard it is to pitch a story! (Imagine explaining this difficulty to my PR clients!). Your achievement is amazing - what the journo means is they need an angle relatable to the masses. Or the reader thinks it doesn't apply to them

[Helen Croydon @helen_croydon]

@AllieDickinson @paulwrblanchard thanks for listing out these companies so clearly. there is such a web of companies that have been started and then put into liquidation that it's hard to keep up. This is a good timeline!

[Helen Croydon @helen_croydon]

How do you know if what you are doing is worthy of PR? Why has media relations got harder in recent years? And why is the creative industry so hard to make a living from.
These were some of the issues I explored in this Lifeblood podcast.
