Rare British Consultants on Chef Success!

[pamperedthorpe]

Thought I'd have a bash at introducing ourselves now we've been posting for a week or two! Well, Jenny and I (Alex) are a husband and wife consultant team in Somerset, which is in the South West of England, and we've been doing PC since the end of January. I'd never actually been to a show before Jen signed us up, but her mum had some stoneware, I love cooking, and Jenny wanted loads of free stuff! :blushing:

I currently work two days a week in our local council's homelessness team, and I'm doing a distance learning Theology degree, and Jen's training to be a social worker in childrens' services. We'll celebrate our first wedding anniversary next month too, so you can tell we like being busy!

Welcome!

I love your signature...

We have had British consultants here at CS before, but it's been a while. There were a couple consultants from Scotland, also.

Have fun with your new business!

I love your signature...

It's a line I use when I'm doing the cooking bit of the show (Jen does the rest), and it always gets a laugh. It's true too! :angel:

We have had British consultants here at Chef Success before, but it's been a while.

We found our way here because the 30-minute microwave roast chicken recipe was emailed to us by our director, who'd got it from someone else upstream from her, who'd got it from one of her recruits! Haven't found anyone else British yet though...

Welcome! We're a little strange, but we're mostly harmless.

Welcome!

My Mom is from England, Bromley to be exact. Now most of her family is in Ashford in Kent. I've been over 5 times before, mostly when I was a kid with the rest of the family. Last time though was for our honeymoon, 9 years ago.

Hi Alex and Jenny, and welcome from a fellow Brit! Although I am getting more Americanised by the day, after living here for almost 11 years (eek!). I'm a Yorkshire lass, but my Dad is originally from Yeovil! And I went to university in Bristol, so not so far from you guys. I'll be back home in July/August for my parents 40th Anniversary, but probably staying up north with my DH and the kiddos.

Anyway, I just wanted to say Hi and Welcome, this site is amazing. I hope your business gets off to a great start. It seems to me that PC is not very well known yet in the UK - is that right? I'm having a hard time getting my family excited about it - It doesn't seem to have the great reputation that it has over here.

Got to run,

Annabel

PS What college are you doing your degree through? You guys are certainly keeping busy!

ETA: I just saw Becky's comment, and it is me she was talking about!
