Nice one Ben!

    Hi,

    We are a new commercial radio station which will be launching on the 14th of January.
    We will be broadcasting to the North West of Ireland.
    We have a segment on our breakfast show called “the worlds greatest.”

    We would like to get in touch with Ben Cook, the world speed text champ.
    Would it be possible to get his e mail or phone number from you so we could organise an interview with him?

    Thank you and kind regards.
