So made the announcement on
@BBCRadioManc
this morning.
Given the new Gov/𝐵𝐵𝒞 advice I feel it’s probably right I bring my maternity leave forward.
It’s for both for my sake & the station, but it’s so sad 😞
It’s been an honour - TaTa for now 👋🏼
Broke my heart watching
@BBCNWT
and seeing how upset
@annabelvtiffin

To Dianne Oxberry! Cheers to you lovely lady wherever you are. Sleep tight x
So today I took a big risk and bought my mum a dog - 12 months after she lost Lillie.
She is 5 and needed a good home. I was so nervous in case it didn’t go down well. IT WENT DOWN A STORM!
Meet Coco 💕
@benpostma
Update! It went well
I cried when they put her to sleep, it’s awful as they drift off :(
It was right she have the operation & she’s up and eating/drinking
Ben & I feel a huge sense of relief.
She’s bruised/swollen but that will go Thanks for all your messages x
@benpostma
So it’s the end of an era as

Grew up listening - loved working there and saddened to see it go.

Have you ever seen a dog in a Sainsbury’s bag? No I hear you say.

@paullockitt

Just watched the James Bulger documentary on
@ITV
Being the mother of a 2 year old I found it extremely hard to watch. Not only that - but the anger I feel inside that justice has never been done. Well done Denise for being a better person than I could ever be!
Still the odd bit of plastering/painting/ and flooring to go in but SO happy with this! .
This is going to be a room for me and the kids. Where we can play and chill and feel we are outside even when it’s raining! .
Can’t wait to get decorating it!

I got sad watching
@BBCNWT
about Dianne
Minnie said why you sad Mum, I said mummy’s friend died
I just went up to check her, she said mum you still sad because your friend died? I said no Minnie - I’ve got you
She said you’ve got me & daddy Mum, your friend will come back soon 😢
Lovely impromptu trip to Llandudno today. We have a bench there in memory of my Nan and Grandad and today we took Barney to see it. Fish chips, a slush is, ice cream, rides and grabber machines. Pretty standard for Wales 🏴
She’s in bed exhausted x
Dear Kendrick Lemar - I’m sure you’re very talented but I don’t understand your stop start musical set on

- it had me very concerned something technical had gone wrong. And did your mother not tell you it’s not cool to swear.
Love concerned of Stockport x
Oh my heart! ❤️ Minnie did a ‘bestfriends’ photoshoot with her little pal and neighbour Lucia - can’t wait to get these beauties in frames! They look gorgeous!
We lost our incredible dad on Saturday morning. He was more than a parent, he was also our best friend. We are utterly heartbroken, but so grateful for the time we had with him
We will be offline with family for a while, but so appreciative of the lovely messages
Nat & Becky x
The look on her face. The joy and excitement in her voice as she waits for the arrival of her baby brother is just amazing to see!!! Just a few more days Minnie and your little brother will be here 💙🤰🏽

Where has my baby gone?
The day after tomorrow she starts school.
I know she needs it but I’ll miss her so much.
What a lovely way to end the summer holidays with a morning walk - just me and her as the sun rose over Anglesey.
Me and my bestie. My Minnie x 💖
Thank you to this guy! My husband who has helped me more this last week than I could ever have imagined.
Coooing, shopping, gardening & been brilliant with Minnie & Barney.
Couldn’t have done it without you
@benpostma
thank you.
Love you lots 💙
I’m devastated to hear that little Alfie Evans passed away overnight
Regardless of which side of the fence you were on in regards to his treatment - he was a very loved little boy & those parents will feel such a huge loss - my ❤️ goes out to them. Give your kids a little hug x
We are celebrating!!!!!!!!!
Minnie got into her school of choice for September.
She is SO HAPPY!!!
Well done darling on this next chapter in your life - we are SO proud of you. X
@benpostma
To my best friend in all the world

Took you a while to enter this world but you were worth the wait
You’re funny, intelligent, cheeky & loving. And we couldn’t love you anymore
Have a wonderful day Here’s to another rollercoaster year💖
@benpostma
Thought Minnie’s TV in her room looked a bit harsh next to all the pink - so came up with the idea of a TV frame. Was amazed nowhere online sold them - so we made it ourselves. Over the moon with the finished product. One Princess crown TV frame x
So today I was asked if I’d like to be a

The most sad, beautiful and funny service for the fantastic Dianne Oxberry this afternoon at Manchester Cathedral.
She would have been so amazed at the turnout and the comments. But all well deserved. It was an honour to be there x
How have 5 years passed so fast!?
My darling girl.
You’re one in a million and I love you with all my heart.
So proud of you Minnie.
Happy birthday sweetheart x
