About Me

I'm a newsreader for talkSPORT radio.

To save you asking my surname is Schonhofer. It's pronounced "Shern-Hofer" and it's Austrian in origin but I'm actually part Polish, French, Irish and English.

My loves are my family, my friends, my god-children, my job and the Seagulls.

Negativity annoys me. As long you tried who cares if you failed.

I ran the London Marathon in 2008 and finished in 6 hours 6 minutes. It hurt but I loved it and I still can't believe I managed it. Next year if I get the chance I'll do it faster! .

I'm soft at heart.

The picture below pretty much sums up me!

My Interests

I love Brighton and Hove Albion and Basketball. Worthing Thunder are my team by default as my best friends husband plays for them. When I'm not watching my teo favourote teams you'll probably find me watching movies, propping up a bar, shopping, running along Brighton seafront or just being lazy. The usual stuff.

I'd like to meet:

Mr Right. He's got to be out there somewhere! Nelson Mandela
George W Bush to see if he really is as fake as he comes across
Bon Jovi (sad but true!)
Nice people!
and anyone who's nasty about me just to see if they'd be brave enough to say it to my face!

Music:

I've a really random taste in music! I was loving the Red Star Rebels but they broke up. Boo. Anyway my vast cd collection includes albums by Bon Jovi, Tonic, The Black Crowes, Metallica, Christina Aguillera and Aretha Franklin. See told you my taste in music was random

Movies:

Dirty Dancing and Sex and the City.I'm a girl it's the law. Otherwise I love being scared out of my wits with various scary movies!

Television:

CSI...all of them. Dexter. Sex and the City. Ghost Whisperer. If it's rubbish I'll probably love it!

Books:

Can usually be found reading crime novels. Anything by Val McDermid, Karin Slaughter, Tess Geritsen and PJ Tracy. Also recommend Motley Crue The Dirt. A real insight into why boys want to be in rock bands. Scar Tissue by Anthony Kedis is another good read. Slash's book is next on my list.

Heroes:

My mum.
Wonder Woman (I've always wanted to be Wonder Woman)
