Yesterday, I ventured down to Croydon to join Junior Yearly Meeting for some intense discussion about the media and identity.

Of which there will be more later, but one of the most exciting discoveries came as we tried to find suitable cover stars for an imaginary 'Cosmo for Quakers'. We were frankly struggling a bit, although amongst the Foxes, Denches and Frys there were a few young Friends nominated for their role model qualities.

But, then at last someone said "Laura"! Yes, it's not often an icon of Radio 1 would expect to make it to these pages, but it would seem that, through schooling and maybe more, Laura 'off-of Laura's Diary' is one of Ours.

Jubilation rang out. She may make her living from filling silence, and be most famous for essentially being auctioned off on the BBC, but Laura's charm, humour and friendly attitude to the other sex definitely make her a Quaker role model in the making.

We look forward to seeing her and Gareth at Meeting soon. Quakers on TV are rather in vogue at the moment (see Heaven and Earth on the 30th of April for a glimpse of some in action) - is it too much to hope that Radio 1 might broadcast its first ever Quaker wedding?

Working for The Friend isn't often like working for Heat - I haven't been this excited since we were allowed to use free photos of Angelina & Brad at Davos.
