    Now – here’s a thing – I’m sad to say that I’ve got some cancerous tongue and lymph node issues and so, as I’m sure you’ll understand, I’m going to be disappearing for a while. It’s all been caught very early and so everything should be fine.

    Thank you so much for all your messages. It has been humbling and quite overwhelming and gives me extra strength. Cheers all.

    All being well I’ll be back in action in the new year – or sooner if I feel well enough – but I will be back – you can depend on it – I just can’t say exactly when that will be. So You won’t hear from me for a while now and therefore…well…..Merry Christmas I guess. Life eh?

    Good morning everyone. My voice still very dodgy so on the show for a limited time today from home. However i wanted you to know that I am up and dressed appropriately for broadcasting on the BBC. I may not be tip top but standards must be maintained.

    I see that a certain sports chain has increased some prices and a certain pub chain is not paying its staff anything. Remember who behaved well and kindly when all this is done won’t you? Stay safe.
