Daisy, Phoebe and Jess from Girls Can’t Catch joined in all the National Best Friends’ Day fun with me at Waterstone’s in London on 4th July and it’s great to be linked up with them.

The Saturdays and Sophie Ellis-Bextor are also playing at the concert next Monday so it should be a cool night out. All you have to do to get your hands on these four VIP tickets is email me at GIRLS CAN’T CATCH COMP and you will be entered into a prize draw. Put ‘Girls Can’t Catch VIP tickets’ in the subject header of the email. The closing date is Thursday 23rd July. If you haven’t heard Girls Can’t Catch yet, check out their website www.girlscantcatch.com and listen to their fab new single ‘Keep Your Head Up’ which is released on 3rd August.

Well, I am back home from my UK Angel Cake tour and I have a challenge for you! I hope you all had a brilliant time on NBFD... now how about taking the friendship theme a bit further?

All you have to do is click onto the FRIENDSHIP CHARTER link and read the six simple promises there… they are things I’ve come up with along with ChildLine the fab children’s charity, with the aim of helping young people all around the world to make their friendships stronger.

We want to get 20,000 names on that charter by next National Best Friends’ Day, so I need you all to sign up… and to tell your friends and classmates to do the same!

You can even print out a certificate to say you’ve signed up… go for it! Don’t forget to let me know if you do sign up!

I wanted to say a HUGE thank you to everyone I met on my fab UK tour, and to all the schools, libraries and bookshops for making me so welcome. It’s great to now you are all enjoying Angel Cake! Have YOU read it yet? What do you think? I hope you like it!

HAPPY NATIONAL BEST FRIENDS' DAY!

Today is National Best Friends’ Day. You might choose to have a pamper party or a picnic, a cake sale or a sleepover. Whatever you do, enjoy spending time with your friends celebrating the power of friendship.

I will be at Waterstone’s in Piccadilly signing books and taking part in lots of friendship celebrations. Come along to join in and for the chance to meet fab new girl band GIRLS CAN’T CATCH and to sign my huge Friendship Charter.

If you can’t make it to London, every single Waterstone’s store is doing something very special – you might just be in for a scrumptious surprise, so pop along and see if you’re a lucky winner!

The main thing is to have an amazing time with your friends! Make sure you send your photos of your celebrations so we can put the best ones up online. Just click here and make sure you put NBFD in the ‘What’s your picture of’ box.
