We were delighted to get the call to say she was one of the lucky ones to be chosen so myself, Mammy and my sister Doreen packed our bags and headed down to Cork! (A bit of a spin from Westmeath but totally worth it!)
We stayed in the Imperial Hotel in the city centre of Cork, the rooms were fab, gorgeous breakfast and fantastic location for the shops!
That night we went around the corner to Il Padrino restaurant for the tastiest Italian meal! After bruschetta and garlic bread for starters I had a creamy salmon and linguini dish, it was so tasty but very heavy!
So, getting to the good bit now!
We were in RTE studios for about 9am and honestly for the entire morning everybody we met was so nice and friendly and chatty, it was a wonderful atmosphere!
Mammy had her choice of about 8 dresses from Debehnams, after trying them on she had a clear winner, it was fab! The colour suited her so well, the fabric really emphasised her great hour glass figure and the bit of bling and rooshing just gave it that edge! She matched it with a fab pair of Jasper Conron kitten heels.
Her hair was put up into a classy French roll and the make up artist from Yves Saint Laurent did a fab job...and she got to keep a gorgeous goodie bag of products!
Myself and my sister got to be in the middle of everything going on, it was great fun to see the 'behind the scenes!'
Daithi and Maura were so lovely and chatty and friendly, I suppose I always expect they'll be too busy or self absorbed to chat to us mere common people but no they were full of chat and just the same as the rest of us!!
We popped into Electric for some lunch after the excitement of the morning, it was the perfect way to round of the day!
If you've ever thought about emailing in you should! It's great fun and a special treat and way to show someone you love just how much you really think of them!
