Yo, yo, yo...

Thank you for your messages etc this morning...much appreciated. It was a fun old show this morning, have a listen again on the iPlayer. I treated it as a Friday because I'm having a couple of sneaky days off before the Christmas rush. There was a good edition of Free-For-All Wednesday today. Rod McKenzie, the big boss of Newsbeat read the bulletin at 5:30 this morning as a special treat. Rod is a news legend and doesn't do bulletins anymore because he is too important. However, he kindly agreed to do one today and even adhered to the new 'costume guidelines' I've put in place for my newsreaders on a Friday.

He does look good in a tux. Find out more about our Rod here.

Have a great rest of the week and weekend. Back on Monday doing Scott's show...Bye for now!
