This morning I enjoyed chatting with Hil Jennings and Steve Meacham, two members of a band called Amazi, about
their song Christmas Angel. Hil explained how he was inspired to write the song after visiting Rwanda in 2008, when he saw first hand how some of the World’s poorest people live. All the profits from downloads of the song and CD sales are going towards the work of the RSVP Trust, a Christian charity involved with various projects in Africa and the UK. For details of how to buy the song visit their website. During our chat it became obvious that you wouldn’t want me on your pub quiz team…

It was also great to meet Michelle Flynn, from Shenfield, who recently impressed a prestigious line up of judges to be awarded the title London’s Best Dressed Banker. As well as explaining how she won – beating the likes of Sir Mervyn King – Michelle described her fashion preferences, and gave a few tips on how to look good without breaking your own bank. With bankers not being the most popular people in society, Michelle said it was good to be involved with something that was so much fun.

Great to meet you Alan. I reckon it was the Zambezi you were thinking of! Happy Christmas to all at Phoenix.
