After being on hold for 26 minutes to confirm an appointment, I am reminded why I stopped being a @specsaversuk.bsky.social customer a few years ago 🤦🏻♀️ #specsavers is inefficient.

I got interviewed about doing a show on Balearic Breakfast, if you're curious about how I got into DJing (!?) this covers it www.balearicbreakfast.com/post/family-...

I knew Kay since the time I joined Classic Album Sundays a few years ago. I had to meet Colleen's Joyous friend and, let's say it out loud, a great person all around!

Back from my second festival in two weeks. I realise how lucky I am to be able to spend time dancing in a field, and I don't take it for granted. #WeOutHere really hit the mark this year, my 6th year of attendance and it was memorable & magical ⭐💫❤️
