@ladyjaney75 @BBCGlos It was a really interesting chat and much appreciated x

Lovely to chat #travel and consumer tips on @BBCGlos with @DomCotter earlier on MoneySaving Wednesday. Key takeaways: 1️⃣ Book package holiday with credit card for max consumer protection 
2️⃣ Take out comprehensive travel insurance and have an emergency fund should you need it
3️⃣ Prices may rise due to fuel costs and demand for ‘safer’ locations. Lock in holiday price now or pick up a last minute bargain. Happy holidays! 🏖️

@MannGeorgia @Spectator_LIFE @BBCRadio3 Thanks for making classical music accessible from one broadcaster to another ..

@IainDale Brilliant news

I had some good news today. Yesterday I had a DEXA scan at the Royal London to check on my osteoporosis, which was diagnosed 3 years ago. The scan showed that it has disappeared from my spine, and more or less entirely from my hip. This is thanks to an annual infusion of Alendronate and doing weights at the gym. Huge thanks to my consultant, Ali Jawad, at the Mile End Hospital for taking me on this journey.

@KateEMcCann @adamboultonTABB @Will___lloyd Such a good listen

🚀 🚀 From Plato to Nato (cc @Will___lloyd) via the Beckhams, wind farms, police competence, giant jellies, fraud, political rivalries, Russia, Ukraine, undersea cables, cables under embassies, free speech, whether you should wash your face with shampoo, dull men, what’s in a name (👀), social media, Con Air, giant ships, the Royals, Iran… and that’s not even half of what we chatted over this week.

@OC Huge congratulations

Today marks 27 years of doing breakfast radio That's 27 years of getting up in the dark and 27 years of playing Nickelback #blessed When I started, I was 25 — full of nerves, Dr Pepper (it was the 90s, used to chug cans of the stuff during the show!), and a fierce desire to make something good. I wasn’t good, I was awful at times. But thanks to the unwavering support and occasional kick up the backside from my mythical and magnificent wife (each name ‘Sarah”, I backed myself and saw the wonky start as me serving an apprenticeship. 27 years on, I’m still serving that apprenticeship. Now I'm 52, free from my dirty Dr Pepper addiction, (25 yrs clean) and the fire’s still burning with a deep love for what I do and who I do it with, thats my team and my co-creators everyday, you, whoever is listening. Back then in ’98, I was playing compact discs, not streaming. There were no texts — the smartphone hadn't even been invented. If you wanted to contact the show, you actually had to call. A real phone. With a cord. Through the land. And yet — somehow — the connection between us was just as alive then as it is now. Because the real magic of radio has never been about the tech. It's about connection. It's about the quiet intimacy of someone letting you into their car, their kitchen, their morning routine — trusting you to be there while they wake up, get ready, face whatever the day brings. I've made more mistakes than I can count — dead ends, stumbles, mumbles, at times evolving as a human out loud, and next hour devolving as that same mess of a man. But I've learned that creativity at its heart is really just being unafraid to make mistakes. And then showing up again the next day. It reminds us that the childhood joy of play should still be with us. Everything’s real rigid and scary right now isn’t it? Here’s the joy of being a fool sometimes! Not knowing is my why. It's the reason I still love this — the mystery, the wonder of what might emerge next. The thrill of not knowing what story or laughter or authentic human moment will unfold. Radio is one of the few places and spaces we go to today for shared experience. And through it all — you've been there. Radio is described as being a companion. It’s a latin word meaning the one you share bread with. Isn’t that great? the one you share bread with And that's what we do, every morning — we share the bread of time, laughter, and life together in that moment. You've let me be part of your celebrations and your heartbreaks. Your mundane Tuesdays and your extraordinary moments. You've trusted me with your mornings, and I don't take that lightly. So thank you — for walking this path with me, one sunrise at a time. Here's to the wonder of what comes next Thanks always to my girls who keep me honest, humble and happy. Sarah, Rubster and Lolo Today I have a heart brimming with deep gratitude

@natasharadio @BBCRadioScot @BBCSounds Will be listening
