The man may have gone, but his presence remains tangibly seeped into this place.

This has totally floored me. #SteveWright . I worked with him for years + was a big fan or the public face of the DJ + hugely fond of the man behind the mask. He was a kind, quirky, infuriating(!) + immensely talented man. And above all, a wonderfully warm human being.

I have the privileged job of coming up with some of the subjects for #justaminute . One of them used on last night’s recording was Prog Rock. No spoilers (as I’ve not edited it yet + it’s not broadcast for a while) but who knew Jan Ravens was such a fellow early-Genesis fan!🤟

Go easy - it's early days!! Never played one before and only had the thing for 3 weeks. Have been working on the classical side, but then found out today I could bluff my way through a bit of this...

Although it’s early in the morning, I’ve opened the first window of my beer advent calendar. The beer itself will be opened once the sun’s well and truly over the yardarm.

Lovely, special meet-up with The Studio Manglers last night.

Sorry to hear about your water problems Tom McKinney! But did you fall in a ditch too? No, I don’t think you did!!
😉

Well, I for one will NOT be watching any of the World Cup from Qatar. Not for any political or human rights reasons, but just coz it's football which is a mindless ballgame in which I have no interest.

I fell in a ditch. Out walking the dog this morning and I fell in a ditch. Not hurt, just muddy. I don’t think I’ve ever fallen in a ditch before. All pretty thrilling really. Got home and said “Hi Val, we’re back. I fell in a ditch!!”…

Quite proud of myself to be honest!

Delighted to have done the lighting for The Great #ScottTreadMills Challenge with Scott Mills for BBC Children in Need on BBC Radio 2... whilst wearing headphones AND Pudsey ears!

Hello Celebrations. My absolute favourite chocolate in your Celebrations selection tub is the Bounty. By far. It's lush! It's the only reason I dip in.
Please don't euthanise the little fellas.

I put my beloved Little Hygge Caravan up for sale today because the cost of living is hitting my family so hard.

One of the mums I've taught bought it for £2000.

Then she gave the caravan back to me and told me to keep it.

I haven't stopped crying all night 😭

I've just had a Hallowee.

House near us…

Is this taking it a bit too far?

Latest Prime Minister news:
So a woman has regenerated into a man of colour in the role for the first time. Is the UK Government following the plot of Doctor Who? And if so, where the hell is interim Prime Minister David Tennant?
