Good news - I'm in. After a year off in 2025, I'll be running my 10th Snowdonia Marathon this October. Let the hard work begin. #running #run #Marathon #MarathonEryri #SnowdoniaMarathon

2025 has been a busy and successful year. I got a promotion at the University, won an innovation award for my teaching, appeared in two Sky Crime documentaries, The Sound of Politics podcast was shortlisted at a national awards and I did 58 newsroom shifts. #HappyNewYear 🥂🍾🥂

I'm back reading the #news for the 39 BBC local #radio stations across England and the Channel Islands.

Last #news bulletin of the shift done. Prepared for a cold walk back to the car. As always, it was good to be popping up on the 39 BBC #radio stations across England and the Channel Islands.

I love the idea of a board supporting their manager & looking to the future. It's refreshing. But Evatt has lost the backing of the most fans. The players are not performing; many of the players have lost the backing of the fans. Next, it will be the board unless they act. #bwfc

Enjoyed sharing my thoughts at the Association For Journalism Education Winter Conference today. My presentation looked at how those working in both industry and academia can play a massive role in bridging the gap between #academia and #industry. It was great to hear from other speakers too.

Here we go again ... another evening in W21 reading the #news for the 39 local BBC #radio stations across England and the Channel Islands.

"Hello" from W21 here at Media City, in Salford. I'm on #news duties reading the bulletins for the 39 local BBC #radio stations across England and the Channel Islands until just after midnight. I'm keeping an eye on the #floods and other stories making the news tonight.

That's my #news reading at BBC 5-Live done for 2024. Looking back, I've covered some big stories over the last 12 months, and these last three days haven't eased up, ending with breaking the news about the death of #JimmyCarter. Time for a break before returning in 2025.

Merry Christmas 🎅 I hope you have a wonderful day.
