Well, today was my last day @LiveLancs and @CumbriaLive. It's been a great two and a half years since starting in June 2021. It's been a tough week this week, but wow what an adventure. I cannot thank the team, past and present, who have helped me along the way.

My colleagues have always been there to support me and I've learned so much. Cumbria is a massive county and it's been a challenge to cover it mostly on my own with the help of the team for live news and longer reads. But, I've learned a lot along the way.

Can't thank the team at @KendalCalling and @alexsuttonpr enough for this hamper. Christmas has come early to Cumbria!

All I can hear upstairs is the patter of my cats paws as she runs, full-pelt I might add, from one room to another! 😻

My mam's kettle broke today and having boiled water on the cooker to make a coffee, I've just tipped said coffee all over myself 🫠

It was such a fun experience!
Thanks @mmajor95 for helping out at a branch! 😃 Postmasters do so much for their local community and go above and beyond, particularly when it comes to helping vulnerable customers. 👇 'I worked in a Post Office at their busiest time of the year' lancs.live/whats-on/whats-on…

One of my favourite pastimes is to creep up the stairs and scare my other half while he's playing zombie games

I've had such a fantastic birthday all down to my other half! Ice skating, bowling, movies and cake 🎂

Just want to put it out there I do wear suncream, factor 50, and sit in the shade most of the day
It's a little over a week til we go on holiday and my mam is literally freaking out cause we can't check in until 24 hours before we go to get our boarding passes. Anyone wondering where I get it from, it's Gil, she's done this to me
