After re-discovering my old diaries I recalled all sorts of moments…

15th August 1981 my radio career began when I stepped into the studio for my first training session. Now as I write this on 15th August 2021 I am still madly in love with the medium, the music and the community of listeners. Thanks to all from behind the mic!!
