Great PT session this morning, a perfect warm up for today's audiobook edit - a book on Roman gladiators for @penguinukbooks.bsky.social and LadbrokeAudio!💪💪💪

Q: Why do bees hum? A:They forgot the words... best one yet!

The bee fertilizes the flower it robs...

No Bees, No Honey, No Work, No Money...

Had a quiet couple of works days before lots of editing and producing coming up. Lovely just to sit in the garden watching the bees delivering pollen to the nest under my shed. Might make use of the time and look up some bee proverbs and browse some bee t-shirts for the rest of the afternoon...

I was honored to moderate PANAcademy's panel with @andreaemmes.bsky.social , @morrisonellis.bsky.social and @samuelwilkins.bsky.social as they shared their challenges with disabilities, adjusting & overcoming & ideas for how industry can accommodate & include disabled colleagues. #PANA #PANAcademy

Me holding an a4 photo reproduction, my mother gave me, of a photo I took at BBC Studios standing in front of an Eastenders 40th anniversary poster...

Great birthday present mum...but just to confirm, I wasn't actually ON Eastenders....

I was recently asked what I enjoy about being an audiobook producer. My answer was simply to build happy and strong relationships with narrators, helping them feel relaxed and comfortable in the studio. So it was very lovely to receive this from Mo this morning. We are both Mo's, don't you know 😀

Great day catching up with #AudiobookNarrator pals on the Southbank! Friends old and new, human and animal :) Lovely stroll from London Bridge. Spotted some cool things in the @southbankcentre.bsky.social shop, too! #London #Audiobooks

Thoroughly enjoyable first run with Scrambled Leggs Running! Looking forward to many more runs, egg-specially the socials! #Tonbridge #running

BBC Radio 3 Unwind
Ultimate Calm: Ólafur Arnalds: Series 1

Put on your hiking boots as Ólafur Arnalds shares meditative music for long reflective walks, as well from Norwegian singer-songwriter Sigrid.

😀 Since I got the keys to the Tardis, it's been hard not to take it out for a spin 😉

You get to have the fun of making the amazing soundscapes! And a bloody good job you do too! 😎

I had an exciting time in the studio with Chris on this one! Download it now :)

A pleasure directing Genesis on this one and meeting Abi!
Buy the audiobook now!

Loved working with Terry on this :)

The latest DWM with CD audiobook in a plastic cover on the shelves of WHSmith.

If you've not yet purchased the latest Doctor Who Magazine, WHSmith are giving away a BBC Doctor Who audiobook with the current issue. There seem to be quite a few titles available.

Well there are around 760 locations... and 54 runs I can do in total a year... but I don't think I will do a different one each time (even though I'd love too!) There are over 60 in London alone! I'm gonna aim for 25 different places 🫠 Are you signing up?

Loved it too! Nope, didn't go up as was wet and windy... but did do a spy thriller treasure hunt around the town! Popped to Devil's Bridge Falls too 😀. Needed my Parkrun A.... suppose I could have done Ashford... 😜

A busy festive period of Parkrunning! Tunbridge Wells, Aberystwyth, Maidstone and Tonbridge! 17 runs into my journey and already seeing amazing improvements in my health! #Parkrun

Google Lens tells me that these are Ryeland Sheep, one of England's oldest sheep breeds going back seven centuries.

A lovely bunch of sheep, posing for the camera

Stunning meandering river viewpoint in Montenegro.

Meow, I feel good, I me-ew that I would now...

Yep, and many have become close lifelong friends after working with them in the studio :)

Reposting... just because...

I collect some of the breaths from narrators I work with in the studio too... in small glass jars... those things sell for a fortune on eBay 😉

...although A.I. can now do breaths...
