Last year we lost our brilliant former boss and friend, Geoff Hill. Ledge of a man @HarryESPN is walking Hadrian’s Wall to raise money for @CureLeukaemia, a charity close to Geoff’s heart. If you are able to donate, the link is in Harry’s bio. 🥰
Hadrian’s Wall challenge under way for @CureLeukaemia. Decided to go from east to west (apparently a schoolboy error as you’re going into the wind). Nice stroll under the Tyne Bridge on the first morning though. #walkingforGeoff
Interview with the man accused of being fugitive Nicholas Rossi. US prosecutors say he is and want to extradite him. He’s adamant he’s someone else. Will ultimately be decided on the evidence in a Scottish court bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-6…

Another £500k allocated to the ongoing Edinburgh Tram Inquiry in the 2022/23 #ScotBudget. The inquiry was announced in 2014 and its closing submissions were heard on the 24th of May, 2018.
Dreadful news. Geoff was a force of nature at Setanta Sports News. Passionate, inspiring and great fun. Doesn’t seem fair he’s gone. Rest easy Boss ⚫️🟡
We are devastated at the passing of our friend and colleague Geoff Hill.
Geoff was a highly respected journalist and a dear friend to so many at ITN. He will be greatly missed, and we all send our deepest condolences to his family.

Lunchtime walk in Holyrood Park. First time I’ve noticed the big fence that’s appeared at the bottom of the Radical Road

“I’ve come to clean, not to do interviews.” One Scotsman just wanted to get on with cleaning up. He didn’t mind me filming him but didn’t want to do an interview.... Fair enough lad! #EUROS2020 #EnglandvsScotland #ScotlandvsEngland #eng #sco
