THERE was no Oscar and no tears but the winner of the Radio 3WAY FM Gold Mona Award, Heather Martin-Trigg, summed up her feelings perfectly yesterday: "I felt just like Gwenyth Paltrow (Oscar winner for best actress - Shakespeare in Love)," she said with a laugh. As presenter of the weekly radio show Gourmet Breakfast and the monthly program Headless Chickens, Ms Martin-Trigg said she was thrilled to receive the award, which recognised her talent." I was actually gobsmacked when they read my name out. I thought I'd maybe have a slim outside chance of getting a bronze, but not gold." The Mona Awards are held annually and celebrate the achievements of 3WAY FM program presenters. Winners for each category and the overall Mona award winners are judged by members of 3WAY FM. Also claiming a Mona Award for the best breakfast program category, Ms Martin-Trigg was humble about her efforts for the community radio station. "Everyone works hard here; everyone puts in and does their show. I don't think I've worked any harder than anyone else," she said.
