OMIGOODNESS...
Hoovering the kitchen (as Busy Girls do on their only days off) I was passively listening to some tunes on MTV when I heard the words 'Alderley Edge' in an advert.
I rushed through to the lounge, nearly killing myself by catching my enormous slippers (don't) on the lead and there it was, shots of little Alderley Edge, with golden camera-added glitzy glaze... apparently they're doing an OC style reality show on Alderley Edge, starting tomorrow on MTV.
Everyone has probably heard about this new programme apart from me (I'm a Busy Girl, too Busy to watch TV) but, my goodness... whatever will they think of next?
You see, we live between Wilmslow and Alderley Edge, in the MTV-nicknamed 'LA of the UK'. I'd love to know where they got that phrase from - there is money in Cheshire - the number of Range Rover Sports, DB9s, Ferraris and Lambo's are proof of that, but LA Alderley Edge ain't!
I am SO watching this programme tomorrow - sad or not - because I want to see how much 'creative camera-work' has gone into making Alderley look and feel like a UK LA...
I'm off to dance round the hoover to some more tunes... do let me know what you think of MTV's Living on the Edge

Busy Girl Goes Training - shock!
Argh.
Went training with my new PT yesterday (Mike Bach from Body Planner - he's on www.busygirlsguide.co.uk). You see, he's joined The Busy Girls Guide as their new Personal Trainer & fitness advisor, which means he's had to pass their service and quality tests, so that must mean he's good.
And I thought that training with him would be fun. So I booked a session with him.
Fun? I conveniently forgot that I'd have to put some effort in - I had this idealistic image of myself trotting around the park in Alderley Edge, with a big smile on my face as I took in the beautiful surroundings, chatting to Mike whilst stretching out on the bench and generally looking quite glamorous in my matching Nike sportswear.
Reality check needed, Busy Girl.
I don't have matching Nike sportswear - I have old trackie bottoms and odd tshirts and I haven't had new trainers for 11 years.
Sweating, puffing, panting, groaning and moaning, wet feet, wet trainers, wet legs.
Don't get me wrong, Alderley is beautiful at 9am on a crisp, dewey morning - but I'm not.
I'm out of shape. I need help. Looking back, it was probably a good idea to find this embarassing fact out now.
So, I invite you to follow my progress Busy Girl - I'll be blogging about my Personal Training sessions every week, giving you the highs and lows. I invite you to come training with me from your computer screen, let me do the work and you can feel my pain!
Am aching now! Have a wonderful weekend Busy Girls and catch you next week...
