It’s Child Safety Week this week and today the Child Accident Prevention Trust are trying to drive home the message about childhood poisoning. Every day, 70 under fives are taken to hospital with suspected poisoning after swallowing cleaning products. CAPT are today trying to get parents involved in something called a Bitrex Taste Test. Bitrex is in the Guinness Book of Records as the bitterest taste in the world and it’s something that can be added to cleaning products so that if a child puts it in their mouth, they’re more likely to spit it out rather than swallow it. Simon, Katie and I took part in the taste test and I’m pleased to say I’ll never do it again........it tastes like nail varnish and I can still taste it now!!!! Have a look at our YouTube page to see our reactions and for more information on Child Safety Week go to www.childsafetyweek.org.uk I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s show because we’ll be chatting to Rough Copy. If you’re not sure who they are, they were on the X Factor last year, a 3 piece boy band mentored by Gary Barlow and they finished 4th. I’m a reality TV addict so I can’t wait to meet them. They’re promoting their new song ‘Street Love’ and its fab; everyone will recognise the chorus. We’re planning on calling Dublin tomorrow as part of ‘Time For Tea’, and this morning we called Poland, where we spoke to a very helpful man who has reserved a table for 2pm for me and my dog......I better get a move on and catch that flight!!
