Sadly I wasn't able to be there (see previous whingeing posts) but last night not only did I win the Newspaper Story of the Year I also, by some odd combo of madness and luck, took out the CATHAY PACIFIC TRAVEL WRITER OF THE YEAR!!!!! Click here to read the media release.
Yes, I almost needed the smelling salts when they told me.
Thank you to the judges, Travcom and, of course, Cathay Pacific for giving me lots of lovely moolah and a trip to Hong Kong which just happens to be one of my favourite places on the planet.
If I wasn't still feeling so ruff, I'd be breaking out the bubbly about now...
