I read a lot. I have 6 books on the go right now, from Greg Bear to Rob Tenple, sci-fi to comedy. But I read three books every year without fail. The Day Of The Triffids, War Of The Worlds and The Christmad Carol. Every year since I was 15. I am now 55. John Wyndham was an incredible author.

Hi all. I don't normally do this sort of thing but, like a lot of the world, the UK is watching what is happening on the streets of the USA with concerned eyes. It's awful what's happening and we feel helpless. But you guys are amazing. Like Jeremy Messersmith. This guy is fantastic.

Why doesn't Trump just say he wants Russia? Russia won't be a threat to America if America owns Russia surely, and it's not like anyone sailed a boat to it, so it's probably free.

I know.. it's not for me, but I am getting more addicted to Love Island UK each year. And is it me, or is Yasmin a Stepford Wife?? She's expressionless, and her delivery of flirty lines just seems like a bad AI talking. It's like Mortitia Adamms' in her 20's. ##loveIslanduk #troubleinparadise

Big thanks to Abbey McCarthy on BBC Introducing Kent for giving 'Souvenir' a spin tonight and plugging the LP. "So infectious, so upbeat and just perfect for the sunshine." Check it out on BBC Sounds now and give it a stream when it's out tomorrow. Ta, TR.
