Three weeks ago, a listener called my show asking for help. Her daughter, along with another Brit, were stranded in India. They tried to contact the Foreign Office. No help. The German Ambassador in India intervened and flew both ladies to Frankfurt with German & EU citizens.
Some jolly good news this morning. I have finally been granted permission to remain in the UK by

Thank you for all the messages of support, I feel really stupid, but the loss of my beloved little Dolli has left me very weepy. Bloody ridiculous really 💔
Someone you can trust. Teddi the Pomeranian. He only eats door frames, plaster off the wall and slippers. Other than that .... and a preference for pooping on carpet. He's brilliant.
Once again, I am so grateful to our amazing

and I am in awe of the stupendous care & attention. She may be here for a while but the way they are looking after her is humbling
The response from listeners to the proposals being suggested for BBC local radio has been incredible. I'm humbled by your support & love. Local radio is perhaps the only truly unique thing the corporation offers.
Had to work quite hard to convince listener Rashid from Chesham on yesterday's show that

Hello
@BBCNorthampton
lovely listeners - I'll be with you weekday afternoons from 2pm starting Monday 4th September 2023. We'll have fun and I won't let you down. Your story matters.
Good morning. How is everyone?

When this is all over, hopefully soon, we'll look back and praise those who spoke & acted with dignity. Some people however. will face the consequences of their actions & deeds

“The recent argument about cutting back local BBC radio goes to the heart of what it should & should not do. The intimate connection between BBC local radio reporters & their home patch is irreplaceable. Uproot that & eventually the tree will topple” Andrew Marr/New Statesman
I can confirm that Teddi's 1st dog training class went well. Mostly. Until the dogs in the class had to choose a toy for a particular exercise. Teddi found a fox pelt (Dont ask) he literally went crazy

It's Sunday evening and we're all working on tomorrow's show. These guys are so supportive. I owe them my utmost gratitude & respect.
Some of the comments and opinions I have seen on

on the passing of Her Majesty The Queen have been simply repulsive and vile. What an awful place this platform has become.

West Ham player Kurt Zouma has had two cats removed from his care while he is under investigation following social media footage of him kicking & slapping his cat.

The response from the radio family has been frankly, incredible. Listener Paul had his car stolen. He left his wife's medical notes in the vehicle. We've found the car - but it's not good news. Paul's wife Carol has

I have absolutely no experience nor do I own or operate any kind of ship other than the dinghy I hire when on holiday. Please may I have a £13.8 million pound contract to run a no-deal ferry service? Oh, and I'd like a Kinghthood as well.
I've just asked

extraordinary dog lover & champion. TV personality with real charm, a rare thing ... and a tremendous radio presenter. He will be missed.
Meet future PC Harry! Harry has had a truly awful time recently, and when we heard how much he loves his new Christmas present, an electric Police bike, we had to pay him a visit!
Harry professionally led us round his street in full uniform. 👏
