STORY:
British Woman Hires PR To Find Millennium Man

"Absolutely desperate" woman doesn't want to go into next century without a man

A British divorcee who claims she is "absolutely desperate" has raised a few eyebrows by hiring a public relations firm to find her a man for the new millennium. According to London's Daily Telegraph, Barbara Kingan of Chesterfield, Derbys has hired Kizzi Nkwocha and Associates on a "no man, no fee" basis to help her find a man before she hits one of Britain's New Year's Eve events.

The PR firm is well known in British circles for placing celebrities on television and talk shows. Kizzi Nkwocha tells the Daily Telegraph that he is busy lining up talk shows and glitzy parties to gain Kingan more exposure.

"I'm no shrinking violet, so I'm looking forward to the experience, " Kingan told the Daily Telegraph. Kingan is 46, divorced five years ago and has three kids ages 20, 18 and 14.

Kingan says her dating experiences have been heartbreaking and depressing. She says her decision to hire a PR firm is an attempt to break out of the singles rut and meet an intelligent man to share a millennium sunset or millennium sunrise with.
