If it wasn't for comping...

Today's blog post was inspired by this post over at the Compers Grapevine blog. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to relive some great comping memories Jane! 

If it wasn't for comping I wouldn't have:
  • started a blog
  • a silly nickname
  • answered my front door to a Gold Radio presenter with £500 vouchers - and a cool bag full of bacon!
  • met Michael Caine at the BAFTAs after-show party
  • done the Supermarket Sweep trolley dash
  • been interviewed for Radio 1
  • camped in the backstage area at Glastonbury Festival (four times!)
  • cheered on Lewis Hamilton at the Brazilian Grand Prix
  • flown in a helicopter over Las Vegas
  • danced in a Reykjavik nightclub with Huggy Bear from Starsky and Hutch
  • Sent my parents to watch the Champions League final
  • Spent 3 weeks on a Lord of the Rings tour of New Zealand
  • Raised over £10,000 for Rainbows Children's Hospice at our charity events
What would YOU never have done if it wasn't for comping?!
