I can, thankfully, confirm that our first celebrity team member has now confirmed her availability for the Amsterdame08 event!
She's Clare Frisby from BBC Look North (breakfast and lunchtime editions daily) and the Politics Show (which airs on Sundays).
She spent 4 years in local radio at BBC Radio York, reporting during the Gulf war, before moving to Look North in Leeds as a presenter.
Clare set us on our way last year for the Amsterdame07 event and managed to get herself hooked on our enthusiasm and energy - ahem
Anyway, I'm really pleased that she's agreed to come along as it should bump up the profile of the event somewhat and may even get us numerous TV mentions.
Clare's also trying to persuade Georgey Spanswick (BBC Radio Leeds breakfast presenter and former presenter of ITV's Tonight programme) to come along too. As soon as I hear either way I'll let you know
