*Taps mic* Hello is this on? I have a small announcement. After 275 years at @bbcradio2 I am leaving. There is not enough space here to say everything I would wish. Apart, of course, from my debt of gratitude to the BBC and all those with whom I have worked xx

How do you start a football team that could go right to the top when you have no money or contacts? Keri Lovell is having a go with Cardiff Town FC. Have a listen to my chat with him and you can watch him on YouTube. It starts about 1hr 7 mins in. bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/b01jq…

This is embroidery. It is the extraordinary work of Cath Janes. The link to my interview with her is bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m002t9… She's in the second hour of my show today. If you listen to the first interview with Jess Davies that's pretty amazing too.

Congratulations, excellent news!
Our little podcast Hanes Mawr Cymru was a far-fetched idea born out of lockdown boredom (thanks @mairhickman 😝) And now it's shortlisted at the British Podcast Awards. Feeling sheepishly proud. Special mention to @RealLynnBowles for suggesting @llinos_mai as writer. Genius.

I miss you too. Can't you just sit in the studio with me, that would be fun. Make the occasional comment on air as the mood takes you?
I love making Kiri’s Comedy Club on @BBCRadioWales but can I be honest, I really miss having a catch up and chat with @owenmoneycomic & @RealLynnBowles every Sunday!
