Woke at 1am with insomnia so had lots of time to prep 🥴 we’ll ask Michael Rosen if reading for pleasure’s hit the final chapter? Find out if a lack of GPs is putting your health at risk and get your view on one thing Rachel Reeves should include in the budget and one she should not!! 📞 0345 6060973

Expensive weekend 😡

The council gritted the potholed tracks that pass for roads down here overnight so the oh-so-glamorous Beast has to be stabled until it washes off and the ratty old Triumph 5TA gets its legs stretched instead. A 1966 machine so reliable it’s almost free to run…

Freezin cold but The Beast is in such fine tune I couldn’t resist a thrash. 1949 motor. Still can’t believe what our engineers were capable of back then 😍

Squidding with Cassady in matching hats courtesy of #DeadHeadKate. None caught so far and it’s darker than the pic suggests…

On @lbc.co.uk at 7: Britain to ape Denmark’s anti-migrant laws where refugees have jewellery ceased on arrival - does that ring any (alarm) bells? Plus Labour set to miss its own housing target - what needs to be done? And can love survive class, religious or any other divide? 📞0345 6060973

LOSERS! 😂😂
November 15, 2025 at 10:27 AM
On @lbc.co.uk from 7: as Budget Day speculation spooks the markets why do we bother with this annual pantomime? Doctors on strike again - has their battle for pay restoration lost your support? And racism on the rise. Anyone want to ponder why? 📞 0345 6060973
November 15, 2025 at 6:36 AM
On @lbc.co.uk from 7: if Rachel Reeves raises income tax she’ll break a manifesto pledge but what’s a manifesto pledge worth these days? Plus has the National Curriculum taken the joy out of learning? And toxic voyeurism - why do 1m people follow a fake Madelaine McCann? 0345 6060973 x

Handsome arachnid! Any idea what type? x
November 6, 2025 at 12:06 PM
On @lbc.co.uk from 7: reaction to last night’s mass train stabbing in Cambridgeshire that’s left 9 people fighting for life. Plus is progressive left on the rise not just here but across Europe? And should UK follow USA and hit super rich with an exit tax when they flee this country? 0345 6060973

Not feeling a 100% so not hanging about here long but I promised to show you Elliot as Ozzy at a Halloween do last night - here he is!

From 7 @lbc.co.uk: should public anger at Andrew be assuaged now Charles has stripped him of his titles? Is Andrew episode beginning of end of British royal family or do roots of that go back further, Diana or Edward 8th? And has the immigration crisis been manufactured? If so by whom? 0345 6060973

Cassady’s named our pumpkin Spooky Jack this year. Kinda proud how it turned out 🖤

Enjoying a beer in Beer at the Barrel of Beer tho sadly without my friend Jon Beer…this is Zeus by the way 😍

@lbc.co.uk from 7am: do drug check facilities where users test their powders and pills make a mockery of drug laws? Do we wait years to train up workers of the future or import more foreigners? And hands up who wants a referendum on the monarchy? 🙏 0345 6070973 x
October 19, 2025 at 5:54 AM
@lbc.co.uk from 7am: Trump’s dithering over supplying Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine continues - is he right to refuse? Are fewer affordable homes the answer to the housing crisis as Labour seems to think? And Prince Andrew stripped of titles but still no apology to his loyal subjects? 0345 6060973

Here you go - giant blue fin tuna! What an amazing creature and only half grown at 450lb! I told it it to watch out for all the Japanese boats off shore! Please don’t eat tuna. Stocks maybe recovering but are still low x

Dr Bush (spine pain management) should appreciate this shot…

What a fantastic crew - loved every minute! - here celebrating hook up #2 #WildSeas
October 17, 2025 at 7:33 AM
Off to sea we go….
October 16, 2025 at 6:14 AM
Off to Cornwall to tick off my penultimate 60th bday treat - fishing for minnows. Not to kill 😖 but to tag 4 science 🤓 18 months of waiting 4 this date, skipper now happy with weather (he was thinking of cancelling!) If you know anything about tuna they could really do without us eating them x

Speedometer off bike for calibration (every point is precious these days) but otherwise all good, running like a (very fast!) half-Swiss watch

Not for everyone I know but I think it's one of the most beautiful things ever made
