I’ve been quiet on here because our beautiful Flower has been unwell & yesterday we had to say goodbye to her. She was one in a million billion. We loved her so much & she made me smile every day, whatever my mood. She was able to go to sleep for the final time on her sofa 💛🌼

Warm smile, upside-down glasses & memories of a World Championship that kept 19 million of us transfixed until well after midnight back in the day! I’ve been chatting with snooker legend Dennis Taylor & it's one of my favourite conversations. Listen here: besomerset.com/post/clash-of…

Hosting a Dog Show requires lots of different interviewing positions 😂 Wonderful time at Somerset and Dorset Animal Rescue’s Dog Show last weekend. Great to meet all the hounds and humans and to hear their stories - impossible to judge! #adoptdontshop

Full moon. Half moon. Total eclipse! 😂 No photos of the actual eclipse in the sky because we were in the moment watching through solar binoculars, but we do have the Jaffa Cakes to remember it by! 🌒😂

I couldn’t hate this “half time show” more. I just want to listen to the punditry. It’s not American football FFS! #worldcup On the plus side, supporting Spain means drinking Rioja 😍🍷

Thanks for the fun, the madness & the music once again @Eurovision (& the voting nerves!!) 🪩🙌💃❤️

Happy Somerset Day to everyone who lives in or loves this incredibly special county from afar. ❤️💛 Country bumpkin & proud! Hope everyone is having a fab one #somersetday

Lots of fun recently as part of art collective Hatch Somerset, creating our ‘fashion show’ with performance art, costume & storytelling. This year it’s called ‘The After Party’ & after the Langport barn & East Quay Watchet over the last 2 weeks, roll on festival season! 🐇🫧🎉

I sat down for a chat with @JDonOfficial & we got chatting about what it’s really like to entertain, what it was like being at the centre of a “perfect storm” when his career skyrocketed, & what really matters…family, love (& for me, roast potatoes! 😂 besomerset.com/post/jason-do…

Yesterday afternoon I headed to Yeovil Art Space to discover more about their brand new arts festival, Yeovil Art Weekender, happening all across the town from Friday 27th March 🎉 Expect colour, creativity & inspiration & you can hear more about it on @BeSomersetradio next week

The very best medicine! 😂 Check out a tiny bit of what happened when I chatted with the brilliant Paul Merton & Suki Webster this week. The full conversation is here, ahead of their show at Westlands Yeovil in March: besomerset.com/post/paul-mer… #comedy

10 years tonight since we moved to Somerset. We were driving down the motorway in our rickety van about now 😂 Best decision we ever made. It feels like forever, in the best possible way. Celebrating with a cider and a few festivities at home this evening ❤️💛

I had an absolute treat of a chat recently, with the brilliant @sueperkins ✨ She’s touring her new stand up show, The Eternal Shame of Sue Perkins, next year so we caught up about that & about all sorts! Here’s a clip. Listen to the full conversation ➡️ besomerset.com/post/the-eter…

It’s the opening weekend of ‘Journeys’ - the art exhibition in a secret barn in Somerset created by the Hatch Collective. Proud to be a member. My piece ‘The White Cello’ is a sound & photography installation about learning to make time for the things that genuinely bring you joy 🤍 It’s free to visit and you can book your time here: ticketsource.co.uk/whats-on/… #art #somerset #weekendmood #cello

It's Punkie Night tonight! Hand me a mangle-wurzel! 😀 It was lovely to be back presenting on BBC Radio Somerset yesterday & chatting with Roger about the tradition of Punkie Night. He was brilliant at explaining it & he also shared some of his unusual family traditions. Jam doughnut bobbing anyone? Here’s a clip and to hear the full chat with Roger, head here, 16 minutes & 50 seconds in: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002l1h… #radio #punkienight #traditions #somerset

It all started with a stubborn supermarket automatic door and a pigeon! 🐦 Ardal O’ Hanlon @ardalsfolly is bringing his stand up show ‘Not Himself’ to @westlandsyeovil tonight and it just goes to show, inspiration can come from anywhere 😉 For our full conversation head here: besomerset.com/post/ardal-o-… You can also get last tickets for this evening at westlandsyeovil.co.uk #comedy #standup #somerset

Here’s a fascinating conversation for you! Dr. Richard Shepherd is the UK's leading forensic pathologist. Having carried out over 24,000 autopsies, his career has seen him investigate some of the world’s most high-profile cases, from the Hungerford Massacre to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. I caught up with him to discover more about his career, his latest show (which is on its way to Westlands Yeovil on October 25th and is touring across the UK too), and the impact his work has had on him personally.  Here’s a clip and the full chat is on @BeSomersetradio here: besomerset.com/post/dr-richa… #TrueCrime #conversation #radio #interview

Picture of the Week is this utterly beautiful shot of a different type of Autumn in Somerset by Martine Herry. A dreamy start to October 💕 I’ve been wiped out for quite a few days with a nasty throat infection, but am slowly coming back to life! Actually feel human today and yesterday 🎉

Willow weaving is definitely mindful and relaxing when you get into a rhythm, and that’s something I learned when I visited Jo Entwistle at Bay Tree Willow (Somerset Open Studios Venue 24) in Barwick, just outside Yeovil. We made a beautiful willow birdhouse together and Jo was a fantastic teacher. Here’s a clip of what happened when I spent a morning with Jo, and you can hear our full conversation here: besomerset.com/post/open-stu… The last weekend of Somerset Art weeks has arrived, so it’s definitely a good time to visit Jo as well.
