Aly

When not writing our press releases, arranging our next raft of newspaper/magazine coverage or high profile competition link, she loves travel of all kinds. Jordan is a favourite destination - she has fond memories of camping under the stars in the desert of Wadi Rum with her young daughter after wandering through awe-inspiring Petra; swimming in the waterfall on Tioman island in Malaysia where they filmed the "Happy Talk Talk" scene in the movie South Pacific; as well as trips to Shanghai, Singapore, Australia and most recently stroking six-month old cheetah cubs during a tour of the Garden Route in South Africa. She also fits in city breaks to Europe whenever she can - Florence and Seville are her favourites, so far...

In her spare time she plays tennis; walks her lively Springer Spaniel; raises as many funds as she can for her best-loved breast cancer charity; studies art history and enjoys being a wife and mother to another aspiring writer in the family, her 13 year-old daughter Matilda.
