  4. Hi Julie,

    As a regular viewer of Look East, I have to agree with others that you have such a lovely smile and it never fails to cheer me up.

  6. Julie is a totally beautiful woman. I don’t just mean in the physical sense, that is a given. She is also beautiful inside. She has had more than her share of pain and heartache in her life, but not only has she come through it all with that lovely smile, but it is blatantly obvious that she cares for and about others. She is a lady who you would invite to join you in a cup of tea and a slice of carrot cake and just put the world to rights.

    You looked stunning on the 22nd December weather forecast in the blue dress and Christmas red hat.

    My wife and I were fans from about 2000 on, sadly I have been on my own since 2016, but I continue to enjoy seeing you forecast our weather.

  11. Couldn’t help being amused when you wore your lovely bright top and all the colours co-ordinated with the colours of the rain, storms, signs etc. !! Did you do it on purpose?!
    Many thanks – | enjoy your weather reports!
