An enormous thank you for all the good wishes on my final day as a broadcaster (sob...). I've been rather overwhelmed by it all. Going to miss @BBCRadio3 terribly, but will be beavering away behind the scenes in Arts & Music - with my radio tuned in to the wonderful @MannGeorgia
Hugely excited about this - such a privilege to work with the most creative people at the BBC and across the UK. I can't wait!
Really excited and rather honoured to be on the curatorial panel for the 2021 London Festival of Architecture, looking at the biggest ideas and challenges in the future of the built environment. A sneak preview of my highlights here: architectsjournal.co.uk/news…
Haven't been on Twitter for a while but I needed company today. What has happened to Sarah Everard is the worst fear of every single woman, everywhere on earth. The fear that, simply by being out, alone, you might suffer something dreadful. #SarahEverard
This is going to be really special: some great performers, celebrating and performing music for some wonderful charities, and I'm thrilled to be hosting it. Hope you can join us this Thursday from 7.30pm x

Taking my 94 yr-old grandmother for her Covid jab, and seeing so many people of that wartime generation, still dapper, elegant and dignified, all so cheerful and uncomplaining. Infinitely cheering amid the gloom
A very happy birthday, @GaryLineker . Hope you're having as much socially-distanced fun as you can

I had Covid 6 months ago and am still struggling with constant joint pain, fatigue and brain fog. There are many 1000s of us, and it helps to know you're not alone. @BBCRadio4 tonight at 8pm, File on 4, is all about 'Long Covid', and this is also helpful:

The petition to save @BBCFOUR is up to 48,000. Thanks for your support. It would be great if we could get it up to 50000 before I contact the BBC Board today. I’ll keep the petition going after today though.chng.it/qKwSZJ2V #LoveBBCFour
I am tremendously proud and excited that, just when everyone needs more art and more joy, my sis @jackyklein28 releases her Grayson Perry/ @Alan_Measles book. And it is a BEAUTY ❤️ + nice vid from Grayson below

Having my best birthday ever! x
I just wanted to say huge thanks for all the good wishes and support I've received from so many people. Being very ill in isolation is a horrible experience, and you all made me feel much less alone. Thank you xx
