Dad. Husband. Reporter. I work for the BBC based out of Birmingham. Focused on Environment/Science & Rural Affairs. Swapped car for cargo bike. PhD/DSc. RTS reporter of the year.
I’m going to treat bluesky like oldskool twitter. Here is my lunch in the sunshine. Roasted tomatoes and feta.

Deffo a mast year. Need some waxwings.

View from the gym this am. Grass? Cant have that a car needs to park. Cycle racks? Pffft. Cars need to park in front and block them. And as ever the psychology of driving to exercise defeats me.

As #doctorwhoday comes to an end a little extra story. Did Sarah-Jane make me a journalist? Maybe. But the returning series did honestly save my life. It was a dark time and I kept going week to week to see what 9 did next. I’ll always be grateful for that.

Fire brigade. Grabbing a coffee. Blocking a cycle lane to do it. (This forced me to move out into oncoming traffic)

Everyone has a plan for the wine fair. Until they get punched in the face by a Shiraz

Twenty years since I met my future husband. Still the handsomest man I’ve ever met.

From video game spectator to starring role as Boudicca in assembly in just seven years.

It’s a pear playing a contrabassoon because it’s made of pear wood. CBeebies is a bit of a fever dream before seven am. Also a lot of anthropomorphic fruit and veg.

Oooh. Bit of local promotion for the Beeb in Birmingham. Like it.

I know the hand is a bit weird but self shoot cameras that can edit out the sick are like magic

Wrapped up warm and spotted a foxy visitor on the bike in the park last night.

Wooohoo! Cool little moment on the cargo bike. (But Ssomeone slept right through it.) 10,000km travelled!

Cycle lanes need looking after. This is just lethal.

We look great. But we are watching K-Pop Demon Hunters.

Alan Partridge was right about an owl sanctuary.

Introducing the kids to our family’s Cornish beach.

Did a nighttime pumpkin patch thing with the kids. Was cute! Will it buy us that extra hour in bed tomorrow? 🤞🏼

Cat read the bedtime story on CBeebies. THE BEAR IS IN A TRAITORS CLOAK!

And then there’s this bit by the mosque leading up to Icknield St (will stop moaning now 😅)

City road (in the distance) ENDLESS roadworks. And also a fun bit of shared pavement that put me in a funeral outside a church! Carver St is just blocked by cars all the time. And coming downhill you are forced out into oncoming traffic. And it’s the main route into town from Ladywood

Happy Diwali! 🪔

Emotions change like clouds across the sun on a summer day.
