I had to do an interview for a fundraiser run by the Heart Foundation. Week after week it was delayed, due to weather, time and committments etc. Finally, we were to jump! By then Peter said not to do it, but how could I back out?

It was a very windy day, and the plane crew were anxious to do it quickly, so the brief was very short and sweet. HEAD BACK! CROSS ARMS. KNEES TOGETHER! And we were off, but by then, the radio team had left for lunch, taking a national feed from Sydney, so I had to speak to an empty studio.

The harness straps under my arm burst my blood vessels, and I was bruised for weeks afterwards, but what fun! Listen now....
