1. Have the hen in an all-you-can-eat Chinese.
2. Then go to a nightclub with nobody else in it.
Classic!
I actually entered that show in September when I first moved to Cork. It was advertised on daytime tv (yes Home and Away, Oprah, a few random episodes of Friends, Murder She Wrote or Escape to the Country, right up to Judge Judy at 4.30pm - love it!) and I decided to take the plunge by entering our names in to see what happened. They're offering €10,000, couldn't pass on that!
So the producer called me back about a week later and was really interested in us, asked me loads of questions. Of course, being as organised as we are and running such a tight ship, we had nothing arranged for the wedding so we were like a blank canvas for the tv people. It was great - thought I'd finally get to make my tv debut (apart from my stint on Nationwide at the Volvo Ocean Race in Galway a couple of years ago) but alas it wasn't to be.
When I told The Corkman about our impending tv appearance he nearly hit the roof! Refused point blank to do it. Muttered something about being too cool for school to go on it...spoilsport.
Oh well. Looks like so far Nationwide is still my only claim to fame. For now.
