Tea or Coffee madam?

I met TV presenter Kathryn Thomas on my travels yesterday. Kathryn, who presents travel show No Frontiers, is everywhere these days! A regular on TV show The Panel and fronting the ad campaign for eircom broadband the girl from Carlow is rarely off our screens. And if you're a frequent flyer out of Dublin Airport she's rarely out of your ears either - she voices the welcome advise message at the boarding gate.

We were at the opening of Barnie's, a new concept to the world of coffee (and tea) in Ireland. The flagship store is located on Dublin's Westmorland Street and is owned and operated by Lorraine Sweeney, who brought us Beshoffs. You just know she's in the know. I highly recommend the Coffee Freezers. They go down faster than Paris Hilton.

Anyhoo, Kathryn, who has amazing eyes, is eagerly awaiting the green light for the next series of No Frontiers, which I'm sure she'll get. When it comes to that girl's TV career there really should be no frontiers.
