Beth's concept for Glamour Fix is beautifully simple. Girls, women, ladies who are heading for a night out or a special occasion can access a group of trained professional hair and beauty specialists who will make sure that they all look fabulous before heading out.

Okay, I'll admit it. I can get excited over things. Not in a 'fluffy, tossing my hair and squealing' way, more in a 'butterflies in the tummy and heart rate up' way. It's nice to feel that way, and it happens when we are doing something that is (usually) fun, exciting and sometimes a little unexpected or 'special'. I have spent most of this week feeling that way.

When I read the comment from Hilary, I was pleased, excited and just a little bit proud. For the moments before I started to find all the reasons to doubt whether or not it was as significant as it felt like it was, I was seriously, properly chuffed with it.

I run a company. Virtually every day I do something that is designed to either enhance the reputation of that company, or to increase its market position. I'm more than comfortable with this, in fact I (secretly) quite enjoy it.
