Just got home from a radio interview on three counties radio I was on there to promote the A La Bark Baking book It was a bit scary to say the least - and I expected to be 'warmed up' - but no They call you in for your spot - and off you go Wish I could do it again now to do it differently - but it went ok and I hope to have raised the profile of greyhounds ;D I also hope to get loadsa web hits and sell loads more books. Sold about half of the 2000 printed - not bad for two months I tihnk. Have just sent a batch to Australia to a rescue centre out there to raise money. Charlie is on the cover if you havent seen it - one of Elaines dogs ;D Greyhound homers fastest ever rehome I think - picked up sat afternoon - and rehomed sunday lunchtime while Elaine was busy having a family BBQ. She opened the kennels especially for us! Bless him - 18 months in and he is still a complete hooligan but we lufffffsss him

Kris - I have your book, and its absolutely excellent ! I was lucky enough to receive it through the post on Xmas Eve from a very kind friend, and sat and read it that evening. Love the presentation, the recipes, the photos, and well, just everything about it. I would like to get hold of some copies for my friends, so glad there will be some more available. What a brilliant idea, and well done for doing the radio interview.

dont forget - you can buy through www.alabarkbaking.co.uk - either from me or pick a charity on that page to buy from. We have almost hit the 1000 mark! The charities selling the books keep all the profit - any sold by me I make the donation. I have sent money to spain to two shelters hit by tornadoes, sent money to lurchers thrown out with broken legs - one in Bath and one in northampton. i have also sponsored two long stayers - one in GRWE and one at Castledon. I get some money from the publisher this month so i wil be sending out more money then. I am just waiting for Marc to update my site to show where the money has gone as I thought people would like to know. I also won a couple of jars of dental chews last month - so Elaines dogs should be happily munching those as we speak! The months supply of dog food is being donated to a long stayer at castleden.

Just ordered three for presies Kris! thanks for the nudge. Been meaning to do it. You are doing so well with it and I'm not surprised. Brilliant book - brilliant idea. You could do with a seperate thread on here, it will get lost under the heading of radio interview.
